Career[]

Queen of The South[]

Murray started his career going through St Mirren's youth academy before signing for Queen of the South in the close season of 2015. Murray was then loaned out to Gretna 2008 on a development loan deal during the first half of the 2016–17 season to gain first-team experience. Murray played in 13 games and scored a brace in a 5–3 win versus Preston Athletic.[2][3]

After returning to the Doonhamers, Murray appeared for his debut as an 89th-minute substitute versus St Mirren at the Paisley 2021 Stadium in a 3–0 win on 7 January 2017.[4] On 28 October 2017, Murray was named as sponsor's man-of-the-match in Queens 4–2 home win over Falkirk.[5] On 21 April 2018, he scored his first goal for the Doonhamers in a 3–0 home win versus Dundee United, having appeared as a substitute minutes before and scoring Queens third goal in the 77th minute with his first touch.[6] Murray's current contract was to expire at the end of May 2018,[7] but he extended his contract to remain with Queens until the end of the 2018-19 season on 30 April 2018.[8] He signed a new one-year contract on 29 May 2019.[9]
