Early life[]

Club career[]

Partick Thistle[]

Hendry joined Partick Thistle in August 2014. He featured in Thistle's development squad frequently, before making his first-team debut for the side on the final day of the 2014–15 season in a goalless draw against Motherwell at Fir Park on 23 May 2015.[4]

On 2 June 2015, Hendry signed a new one-year contract with the Jags, alongside David Wilson and goalkeepers Paul Gallacher and Tomáš Černý.[5] After an outstanding pre season, Hendry came on as a substitute in the opening game of the season away to Hamilton after only 29 minutes following an earlier red card for Frédéric Frans, he went on to help keep a clean sheet alongside Liam Lindsay in defence as the match finished 0–0.[6] Following the match it was reported that English Premier League club Everton had been watching Hendry.[7]

Wigan Athletic[]

On 1 September 2015, Hendry signed for Wigan Athletic.[8] He joined fellow League One side Shrewsbury Town on loan until the end of the season in March 2016.[9]

On 31 August 2016, Hendry joined League One side Milton Keynes Dons on loan until January 2017.[10] On 4 October 2016, Hendry made his debut for Milton Keynes Dons, featuring in a 0–1 away EFL Trophy group stage win over Peterborough United.[11]

Dundee[]

Hendry signed a two-year contract with Dundee in July 2017.[12] He played regularly and became a key player for Dundee in the first part of the 2017–18 season.[13] Dundee rejected offers from Celtic for Hendry during January 2018,[14] before agreeing a club-record fee on 31 January.[15]

Celtic[]

Celtic signed Hendry to a four-and-a-half-year contract on 31 January 2018.[15] He made his debut for the club in a 1–0 defeat away to Kilmarnock on 3 February.[16]

Melbourne City[]

On 22 January 2020, Hendry joined A-League club Melbourne City on loan for the rest of the season.[17] During his second appearance for Melbourne, Hendry suffered a knee ligament injury that required surgery.[18]

Oostende[]

Hendry was loaned to Belgian club KV Oostende in July 2020,[19] and Celtic gave the Belgian club first option to buy him.[20] In his Jupiler Pro League debut in September 2020 he scored a last-minute winner against KV Mechelen to clinch a 1–0 victory for his new club.[21][22] Hendry moved to Oostende on a permanent basis in June 2021.[23]

Club Brugge[]

On 31 August 2021, just two-months after signing permanently for KV Oostende, Hendry joined Club Brugge on a four-year contract.[24] He featured in Brugge's famous 1–1 Champions League draw against a star-studded PSG side (featuring Messi, Mbappé and Neymar playing together for the first time), and was named as Player of the Match by the BBC.[25]

International career[]

In March 2018, Hendry received his first call-up to the senior Scotland squad for the friendlies with Costa Rica and Hungary.[26] He made his Scotland debut on 27 March, playing in a 1–0 win against Hungary.[27] Hendry was recalled to the squad in March 2021, after performing well in the Belgian league for KV Oostende.[20][28] He was then selected in the Scotland squad for the delayed UEFA Euro 2020 finals,[20] and scored his first international goal in a pre-tournament friendly against the Netherlands.[29]
