Macaulay Tait is a Scottish centre midfielder, born on 27 August 2005 (age 20). Compact at 5ft 7in (1.70m), he is currently with St Johnstone and is valued at around £425,000 by Transfermarkt.
His senior career is shaped far more by Livingston than anywhere else. Across two seasons there, Tait made 48 league appearances, giving him the kind of regular football that tends to matter more than a tidy academy CV or a handful of cameos elsewhere.
There was also a Hearts spell in 2023–24, when he made 12 league appearances. That gave him another view of the top end of the Scottish game, though Livingston remains the club most closely tied to his development as a first-team player.
By 2026–27, Tait had made one league appearance for St Johnstone. His career so far is still a developing one: a young Scottish midfielder with meaningful Livingston mileage behind him and a current task of turning that experience into a settled role.
