Career

Born in Kirkcaldy,[2] Paterson began his playing career with Dunfermline Athletic, before moving to Celtic's youth sector at the age of 12.[3] In June 2018, he signed his first professional contract with Celtic,[4] which was then renewed in May 2020, when he penned a new three-year deal.[5]

Whilst under contract with Celtic, Paterson spent time on loan at Queen's Park,[6] where he won the 2020–21 Scottish League Two,[3][7] and then Airdrieonians,[8] where he reached the promotional play-offs of the 2021–22 Scottish League One, as the club eventually lost to Queen's Park in the final round.[9][10] At the end of the latter season, Paterson left Celtic after turning down an offer for a new contract extension.[9][11]

On 4 July 2022, Paterson joined EFL League Two side Hartlepool United on a two-year deal.[4][12][13] On 9 January 2023, Paterson signed for Cove Rangers on loan for the remainder of the season.[14]

Style of play

Paterson is a left-back, who can also play as a left winger, and provides cover both in defensive and offensive actions.[3][4]

He has cited Kieran Tierney as his main source of inspiration.[3]
