Career
[edit]Montgomery signed his first professional contract with Celtic in July 2019, and he extended his contract to 2025 in February 2021.[1] After making the bench for the first team on four occasions, he made his professional debut for Celtic on 12 May 2021, starting in a 4–0 win over St Johnstone.[2]
On 31 January 2022, he joined Aberdeen on loan until the end of the 2021–22 season.[3]
On 3 July 2023, he signed for League One club Fleetwood Town on a season-long loan deal.[4]
On 15 January 2024, Montgomery joined Motherwell on loan until the end of the 2023–24 season.[5] On 1 February 2024, he returned to Celtic after suffering a serious injury during a training session.[6]
In July 2025, Montgomery signed for Livingston on loan.[7] His loan agreement ended early in January 2026 due to another injury setback.[8]
Style of play
[edit]Montgomery started out as a forward at the club before being moved into defence by coach Darren O'Dea, and that paid off in February 2021 when the youngster extended his contract to 2025.[9]
