Club career

Youth career

Peters started his career in the Inverness Caledonian Thistle youth ranks before transferring to Strathspey Thistle and then Hibernian.[1]

Senior career

In 2020, Peters signed his first professional contract with Forfar Athletic and went on to score 11 times in 33 appearances for the Loons, which caught the attention of several bigger clubs in Scotland.[2]

His good form earned him a move to Livingston in 2017.[3] Peters struggled to break into the first team and returned to Forfar Athletic on loan.

Peters re-signed for the Loons permanently in January 2018.[4] He struggled to find the goalscoring form from his first spell at Station Park and was soon on the move again. The forward signed for Queen's Park in the summer of 2018 and scored twice in 12 appearances for the Spiders before departing the club after one season.[5]

Spells at Stirling Albion and Elgin City followed over the next four years before Peters signed for Highland Football League side Buckie Thistle in 2022.[6]
