Max Watters, born on the 23rd of March 1999, is an English forward who currently plays as a striker for Dundee United. Standing at 5ft 11in (approximately 1.81m) and tipping the scales at 12st 8lb (around 80kg), this bulky Englishman can be easily recognised, not just by his imposing frame but by the number 36 emblazoned on his jersey.
Presently, his market value is estimated to be around €400k (£345k), a figure reported by Transfermarkt. Watters' career trajectory has seen him swap jerseys quite often - from Ashford United to Doncaster Rovers, to Grantham Town on loan, back to Doncaster, swiftly followed by a loan spell at Mickleover Sports, then to Crawley Town, and Cardiff City.
This opportunistic striker has shown a marked improvement in his game at each step of his football journey. His time at Cardiff City saw him make appearances in 22 league games across three seasons, even managing to find the back of the net on one occasion. His frequent loan spells included time at MK Dons and Barnsley, where he gained crucial first-team experience, enhancing his striking capabilities and maturing as a player.
Watters' football journey brought him to Scotland in July 2025 when he signed for Dundee United, where he has begun to leave his mark. In the current season of 2025/26, he has already graced the pitch three times, scoring once. Watters has also represented Dundee United in the League Cup, and remarkably netted three goals in just four appearances in the Conference League Qualifiers.
With his increasing market value and goal-scoring skills coming to the fore, he has the potential to become a key player for Dundee United and continue to make his mark in Scottish football, should the opportunity present itself.
