Club career
[edit]Aberdeen
[edit]After progressing through the youth ranks at Aberdeen, Ramsay made his debut as a late substitute against Dundee United in March 2021, under caretaker manager Paul Sheerin. Ramsay went on to make another five appearances in his first season with the senior team.[5] He made his European debut for the club against Swedish side BK Häcken in July 2021 in a UEFA Conference League qualifier. He started at right back in a 5–1 win and assisting the first goal of the game. Ramsay won the SFWA Young Player of the Year award for 2021–22, his only full season with Aberdeen.[6]
Liverpool
[edit]Ramsay moved to Premier League club Liverpool in June 2022. He signed a five-year contract for an initial fee of £4.2m,[7][8] a club record sale for Aberdeen.[9]
On 1 November 2022, Ramsay made his debut for Liverpool when he came on as an 87th minute substitute in the 2-0 win against Napoli in the 2022–23 UEFA Champions League.[10] On 9 November 2022, he started his first game for Liverpool in the win against Derby County in the third round of the EFL Cup at Anfield.[11] In February 2023, having made only two appearances for Liverpool's first team, Ramsay was ruled out for the rest of the 2022–23 season following surgery on an unspecified injury.[12][13]

2024–25: Loan to Wigan Athletic
[edit]On 5 June 2024, Ramsay was again sent on loan, this time to Wigan Athletic for the 2024–25 season.[17]
