Brody Paterson (born 24 April 2001) is a Scottish professional footballer who plays for Scottish League One club Kelty Hearts.

Career

[edit]

Born in Kirkcaldy,[1] Paterson began his playing career with Dunfermline Athletic, before moving to Celtic's youth sector at the age of 12.[2] In June 2018, he signed his first professional contract with Celtic,[3] which was then renewed in May 2020, when he penned a new three-year deal.[4]

Whilst under contract with Celtic, Paterson spent time on loan at Queen's Park,[5] where he won the 2020–21 Scottish League Two,[2][6] and then Airdrieonians,[7] where he reached the promotional play-offs of the 2021–22 Scottish League One, as the club eventually lost to Queen's Park in the final round.[8][9] At the end of the latter season, Paterson left Celtic after turning down an offer for a new contract extension.[8][10]

On 4 July 2022, Paterson joined English League Two side Hartlepool United on a two-year deal.[11] On 9 January 2023, Paterson signed for Cove Rangers on loan for the remainder of the season, re-joining with his former manager at Hartlepool, Paul Hartley.[12] At the end of the 2022–23 season, the Hartlepool Mail reported that Paterson would be allowed to leave the club permanently.[13] In January 2024, he signed on loan for Kelty Hearts until the end of the season.[14] He was released by Hartlepool United at the end of the 2023–24 season.[15] In June 2024, it was announced Paterson had signed for Kelty Hearts on a permanent basis.[16]

Style of play

[edit]

Paterson is a left-back, who can also play as a left winger, and provides cover both in defensive and offensive actions.[2][3]

He has cited Kieran Tierney as his main source of inspiration.[2]
