Grant Gallagher (born 11 January 1991) is a Scottish footballer who is a utility player for Scottish League Two club Stranraer.
Career
Born in Irvine, Grant, predominantly a right back and centre midfielder, began his career at Celtic but did not make a single first-team appearance. He was released by the club in summer 2010.[1] In August of that year, Gallagher joined Stranraer; he spent five years with the Stair Park side, making over 200 appearances and scoring 15 goals.
In May 2015, Gallagher signed a one-year contract with Scottish Championship side Dumbarton, joining up with his former manager at Stranraer, Stephen Aitken.[2] He scored his first goal for the club in a 2–0 friendly win over Hearts.[3] He scored twice on his competitive debut in a 3–2 victory over Morton.[4] After 37 appearances for the club and four goals, he was rewarded with a new deal in May 2016.[5] His second season with 'The Sons' was ended by injury in September; however, he agreed a new contract with the club in May 2017 until the summer of 2018.[6] On his return to action, Gallagher suffered an Anterior cruciate ligament injury in a friendly against Partick Thistle that ruled him out for at least a further 6 months.[7] He returned to action on 31 March 2018, making his first league appearance in 18 months in a defeat to Livingston.[8] He was subsequently released by the club in May 2018,[9] and joined Airdrieonians, whom he left after another injury-hit season.[10] Gallagher rejoined Stranraer in May 2019.[11]
