Career

Donaldson joined Raith aged 14 as a member of their youth academy, from Edina Hibs youth team.[1] He was promoted to the senior squad in June 2010, signing a full-time contract[2] He made his first team debut aged 17, on 7 May 2011, as a substitute in Raith Rovers' 3–0 defeat against Partick Thistle in the Scottish First Division.[3] Having firmly broken into the first team at the start of the following season, Donaldson was given a two-year contract extension confirming his stay until 2014.[4] At the end of his contract he was released by the club.[5]

Donaldson joined Peterhead on loan on 14 November 2013.[6] He made his debut on 16 November 2013, as Peterhead drew 1–1 with East Stirlingshire.[7] He scored his first goal on 7 December 2013, in a 3–1 win away at Clyde.[8] His loan ended early when he was recalled by Raith Rovers on 31 December 2013.[9]

After his release by Raith Rovers, Donaldson agreed a deal to sign for Peterhead on a permanent basis.[10] At the end of the 2014–15 season, Donaldson was released by Peterhead[11] and within a few days of leaving The Blue Toon, Donaldson signed for Scottish League Two side East Stirlingshire.[12]
