Jude Bonnar

Jude Bonnar of Arbroath was born in Hamilton, Scotland on 17 November 2005 (age 20).

Jude Bonnar is a Scottish centre midfielder, born on 17 November 2005 (age 20). His senior career has been shaped mainly by Ayr United, where he made 21 league appearances before Celtic signed him in June 2026.

That move took him from regular exposure at Ayr into Celtic’s wider squad picture, though his next practical step came on loan at Arbroath. In the 2026-27 season, he has made five Championship appearances and scored once, with another outing in the Scottish Cup.

His current market value is around £128,000, according to Transfermarkt. For now, Bonnar’s profile is straightforward: developed through Ayr, picked up by Celtic, and getting senior football at Arbroath.
