Jordan McGhee

Jordan McGhee of Motherwell was born in East Kilbride, Scotland on 24 July 1996 (age 29).

Jordan McGhee, born on 24 July 1996 (age 29), is a Scottish right-back with Motherwell, where he wears the number six shirt. His current market value is around £170,000, according to Transfermarkt.

McGhee’s career is shaped most clearly by his spell at Dundee. Across four seasons he made 119 league appearances and scored 13 league goals, becoming a regular first-team presence rather than a passing squad name.
