Born on the 9th of December 1997, 27-year-old Luke McCowan, a native Scot, serves primarily as a central attacking midfielder for Celtic Football Club. Standing at 5 feet 9 inches (1.77m) and weighing in at around 11 stone 4 pounds (72kg), the number 14 jersey hangs comfortably on him.
The worth of this Celtic midfielder is gauged at nearly £1.7 million as per Transfermarkt. His time with Celtic is anticipated to be a lasting one, with a contract that runs up to 31st May 2027, a total of 2 years and 2 months from now.
The football journey of Luke McCowan began in earnest when he joined Ayr United in the Scottish Championship back in July 2016. His inaugural season (2017-18) marked a humble beginning as he made just one first-team appearance in the league matches. He then went on to transfer to Dundee, a team in the Scottish Premiership, in July 2021.
His time at Dundee served as a significant career development period for McCowan. From the 2021 to 2022 season, McCowan was a consistent first-team presence. He made 29 appearances and scored 4 goals. In the following season (2022-23), McCowan furthered his contribution with 30 appearances and upped his scoring game by netting 7 goals. The 2023 to 2024 season saw him make 37 appearances, this time scoring ten goals. The subsequent season (2024-25) saw him briefly with Dundee, where he made three appearances and had two goals to his name.
McCowan then made a pivotal move to Celtic, in the Scottish Premiership, for an approximate fee of £1million in August 2024. In his current season with Celtic (2024-25), McCowan has already marked his presence, with 30 first-team appearances and five goals in league matches.
Beyond his national exploits, McCowan also had a chance to taste clear-cut competition in the Scottish Cup (2024-25) with Celtic, where he scored a goal in just four appearances (one start, three as a substitute). He also participated in the European epic, the Champions League (2024-25) and made three appearances as a substitute for Celtic.
