Ryan Porteous (born 25 March 1999) is a Scottish professional footballer, who plays for Scottish Premiership club Hibernian. He has also played on loan at Edinburgh City and has represented Scotland at the under-19, under-20 and under-21 levels.

Club career[]

Raised in Dalkeith in Midlothian,[1][2] Porteous supported Hibernian in childhood[3][4] and attended Dalkeith High School.[5] After establishing himself in the Hibernian youth system, he was loaned to Edinburgh City for the 2016–17 season.[1] Porteous scored goals that secured wins for Edinburgh against Annan Athletic (their first in the SPFL) and Arbroath.[1]

He made his first team debut for Hibernian in a 2017–18 Scottish League Cup group stage match against Montrose. He then scored two goals in his second appearance for Hibs, a 6–1 win against Arbroath in the same competition.[6] Although becoming a regular in the senior squad during that season (30 times an unused substitute in addition to six Scottish Premiership matches in which he did feature),[7] Porteous also continued to appear for the club's Under-20s, whose campaign ended with a 'double' of SPFL Development League[8] and Scottish Youth Cup.[9]

During October 2018, Porteous signed a new contract with Hibernian, due to run until the summer of 2023.[10] He suffered a knee injury in January 2019 that required surgery, which prevented him from playing for the rest of the 2018–19 season.[11][12]

On 20 December 2019, Porteous was shown a straight red card for a dangerous tackle on Borna Barišić, with the incident provoking an angry confrontation between both coaching teams.[13] Porteous suffered a serious knee injury during a Scottish Cup match at Dundee United in January 2020.[14]

International career[]

Porteous was named in the Scotland under-19 squad for the elite round of qualification for the 2017 UEFA European Under-19 Championship.[15][4] He made his first appearance for the under-21 team in the 2018 Toulon Tournament, and made 14 appearances in total over the following two years.

He earned a first senior Scotland call-up for Euro 2020 qualifiers against Cyprus and Kazakhstan in November 2019, but did not play in either fixture.[16] He was added to squads in October 2020[17] and November 2021.[18]

Personal life[]

His older sister Emma is also a footballer who played for Hibernian[19] and was selected for Scotland at youth level before taking a university scholarship in Pennsylvania to combine her sporting and academic studies.[20][21] Ryan missed her graduation to play for Scotland Under-21s.[2]

As of 2018, Porteous was signed to an agency operated by tennis player Andy Murray.[3]

In October 2020, Porteous declared his support for the Common Goal charity.[22]
