Brody Paterson (born 24 April 2001) is a Scottish professional footballer who plays for Kelty Hearts, on loan from National League club Hartlepool United, as a fullback or a winger.[1]
Born in Kirkcaldy,[2] Paterson began his playing career with Dunfermline Athletic, before moving to Celtic's youth sector at the age of 12.[3] In June 2018, he signed his first professional contract with Celtic,[4] which was then renewed in May 2020, when he penned a new three-year deal.[5]
Whilst under contract with Celtic, Paterson spent time on loan at Queen's Park,[6] where he won the 2020–21 Scottish League Two,[3][7] and then Airdrieonians,[8] where he reached the promotional play-offs of the 2021–22 Scottish League One, as the club eventually lost to Queen's Park in the final round.[9][10] At the end of the latter season, Paterson left Celtic after turning down an offer for a new contract extension.[9][11]
On 4 July 2022, Paterson joined English League Two side Hartlepool United on a two-year deal.[12] On 9 January 2023, Paterson signed for Cove Rangers on loan for the remainder of the season, re-joining with his former manager at Hartlepool, Paul Hartley.[13] At the end of the 2022–23 season, the Hartlepool Mail reported that Paterson would be allowed to leave the club permanently.[14] In January 2024, he signed on loan for Kelty Hearts until the end of the season.[15]
Paterson is a left-back, who can also play as a left winger, and provides cover both in defensive and offensive actions.[3][4]
He has cited Kieran Tierney as his main source of inspiration.[3]
