Craig MacGillivray (born 12 January 1993) is a Scottish[3][4] professional footballer who currently plays as a goalkeeper for League One club Portsmouth.[5]
Club career
Non League Career
MacGillivray began his career as a reserve team goalkeeper for Harrogate Railway Athletic,[6] eventually earning a move to Stalybridge Celtic in 2011.[7] After making four appearances for Stalybridge in an injury–hit season,[8] MacGillivray joined Harrogate Town in August 2012.[7] He rejoined Harrogate Railway Athletic on loan for a brief spell in 2012. Following his return from loan, MacGillivray emerged as Harrogate Town's first–choice goalkeeper and made 90 appearances for the club over two seasons in the Conference North.[8] He was linked with moves to a number of Football League clubs during this time.[9]
Walsall
Despite agreeing a two–year deal with Harrogate in November 2012,[9] MacGillivray joined League One side Walsall on 13 June 2014 on an initial one-year deal after the two clubs agreed a compensation package.[10] He acted as a deputy to Richard O'Donnell for much of the 2014–15 season but MacGillivray eventually made his debut for the Saddlers on 25 April 2015, keeping a clean sheet in a 2–0 victory over Oldham Athletic.[11]
On 20 May 2015, MacGillivray signed a new one-year contract with the club.[12] He made eight appearances in total in 2015–16 as Walsall missed out on promotion via the play-offs and was offered a one-year deal at the end of the season.[13][14]
At the end of the 2016–17 season, Walsall and MacGillivray mutually agreed to end his contract after being unable to guarantee the stopper a regular starting place.[15]
Shrewsbury Town
On 5 July 2017, MacGillivray joined fellow League One side Shrewsbury Town on a free transfer on a one-year deal.[16]
He was offered a new contract by Shrewsbury at the end of the 2017–18 season.[17]
Portsmouth
On 4 June 2018, League One club Portsmouth announced that MacGillivray had signed on a two-year deal.[5] MacGillivray made his Portsmouth debut at Fratton Park in their opening league match on 4 August 2018, earning a clean sheet in a 1–0 win over Luton Town.[18] On 31 March 2019, MacGillivray started in goal for Portsmouth in the EFL Trophy final against Sunderland. MacGillivray made a save in the penalty shootout, saving a spot kick from Lee Cattermole.[19] Portsmouth went on to win the shootout 5–4 (2–2 after extra-time).
International career
On 27 August 2019, MacGillivray was called up to the senior Scotland squad for the first time by manager Steve Clarke.[20]
