Elliot Watt

Elliot Watt of Motherwell was born in Preston, England on 11 March 2000 (age 25).

Elliot Watt, born on the 11th of March 2000, hails from England and commands the football field as a predominantly central defensive midfielder. Currently, he plays for Motherwell, showcasing his talents in the renowned number 20 jersey. Standing 5ft 10inches (1.8m) tall and weighing 11st 9lb (74kg), Watt is a formidable presence in midfield.

As per Transfermarkt, it's estimated that his current market value is around £420,000.

Watt made his journey into professional football back in July 2016, when he joined the renown Wolverhampton Wanderers in England's Premier League as a trainee. It was an eventful turning point in Watt's career.

After having spent some years with the Wanderers, Watt was transferred on loan to Carlisle United in the National League, England in January of 2020. He only spent a few months there before moving on, paving a path to Bradford City in July 2020. It's worth noting that the terms of this particular move, including any transfer fee, remained undisclosed.

From there, within a couple of years, Watt moved to Salford City in England's League Two. His debut season for the club in 2022 - 2023 saw him make 34 first team appearances in league matches.

After a memorable season with Salford City, Watt was transferred to Burton Albion in the League One in England in July 2024. This, however, only lasted for a few months as he was then loaned to St Johnstone in the Championship in Scotland come January of 2025. During the 2024-2025 season, Watt was able to showcase his skills on Scottish pitches making eight first team appearances and scoring twice in league matches.

July of 2025 saw Watt leave England once more to return to Scotland. He parted ways with Burton Albion to join Motherwell in the Scottish Premiership. In the 2025 - 2026 season, he's made 14 first team appearances and found the back of the net once in league matches.
