Marcus Dackers, born in Wales on 9th January 2003, is a forward who primarily fills the role of striker for Kilmarnock Football Club. Towering at 6 foot 7 inches (2.01m) and weighing a robust 14st 9lb (93kg), Dackers dons the number 9 jersey whilst on the pitch. According to Transfermarkt, his current market value hovers around £127,000.
Previously, in July 2021, Dackers transferred from Brighton & Hove Albion to the League Two outfit, Salford City, where he made five first team appearances during the 2022 - 2023 season. His journey continued when he was loaned out to the National League North side, Chester, in January 2022.
After his return to Salford City in June 2022, he was once more loaned out in September, this time to Southend United, a National League team, where he made six appearances and scored three goals for his loaning club during the 2022 - 2023 season.
Dackers carried on this pattern of short stints and was loaned to another National League team, Woking, in January 2023. He made a mark here as well, scoring two goals from eleven appearances. The trend of lateral movement continued with loans to Altrincham and another term at Southend United, interspersed with his return to Salford City.
However, his periods of loan came to an end in July 2025 when he made a permanent move to Kilmarnock, a Premiership outfit based in Scotland. As of the 2025 - 2026 season, Dackers has made 21 appearances and scored two goals in the Scottish Premiership, showing a promising start to his career in Scotland.
perhaps, in a few years' time, we may witness his ascension to join the Celtic ranks. For now, we watch and wait.
