Daniel MacKay (born 19 April 2001) is a Scottish footballer who plays as a left winger.

He has previously played for Inverness Caledonian Thistle, Elgin City, Hibernian, Kilmarnock and Livingston. MacKay has also represented Scotland at youth levels up to and including the under-21 team.

He is the older brother to Calum MacKay, who most recently played for Inverness Caledonian Thistle.[2]

Career

[edit]

Inverness Caledonian Thistle

[edit]

He made his first team debut in a friendly vs Nairn County, scoring from 20 yards past the keeper. MacKay made his professional first team debut and scored his first professional goal against Peterhead on 7 October 2017 in the Scottish Challenge Cup.[3] He scored his first league goal in a 3–1 away loss to Falkirk.[4] He was assisted by fellow league debutant, Jack Brown. MacKay is the youngest player and goalscorer in the club's history,[5] at just 16 years and 174 days.

He was one of 10 youth players to turn professional with the club in May 2018.[6]

On 9 August 2019, MacKay and goalkeeper Daniel Hoban were loaned by Inverness to League Two club Elgin City. However a little over a week later, MacKay injured his ankle in a 1–0 home loss to Stenhousemuir in the 43rd minute. MacKay's loan was extended to the end of the season in the January Transfer Window.[citation needed]

In his first full playing season with Inverness, MacKay scored seven goals and won the club's goal of the season award for his effort against Ross County in a Scottish Cup tie.[citation needed]

Hibernian

[edit]

MacKay signed for Hibernian for an undisclosed amount in May 2021.[7] On 29 July 2021, MacKay scored his first goal for Hibernian in a competitive game against FC Santa Coloma in a 2–1 win in the UEFA Conference League qualifiers second-leg.[8]

On 13 January 2022, MacKay joined Scottish Championship side Kilmarnock on loan for the remainder of the 2021–22 season.[9]

In July 2022, MacKay was loaned back to Inverness Caledonian Thistle for the 2022–23 season.[10] He scored for Inverness in the 2023 Scottish Cup final, which they lost 3–1 to Celtic.[11]

MacKay moved on loan to Livingston in August 2023.[12]

Partick Thistle

[edit]

In June 2024, he joined Partick Thistle on a two-year deal following his departure from Easter Road.[13]

Following an injury in training in August 2024, it was confirmed that MacKay would be out injured for a significant period of the 2024–25 season.[14]

International career

[edit]

In 2017, MacKay played for the Scotland Schoolboys team, along with fellow Inverness Caledonian Thistle team-mate, Kieran Chalmers. He scored in a match against England a day before he featured in the 2018 Scottish Challenge Cup Final, where he provided the assist to the winning goal from Carl Tremarco.[citation needed]

MacKay was called up into the Scotland under-19 squad on 28 January 2019 ahead of friendlies vs Spain and Azerbaijan. He made his under-19 debut against Spain, substituting in the 72nd minute for Stephen Kelly.[citation needed]

On 25 May 2021, MacKay was called into the Scotland under-21 squad for two friendlies against Northern Ireland.[15] Three other Inverness players (Robbie Deas, Roddy MacGregor and Cameron Harper) were also selected.[15] MacKay featured prominently in the second game, missing three good chances but winning a penalty kick that led to the match-winning goal.[16]
