According to the meticulously compiled records at Transfermarkt, his current market value stands somewhere in the region of £170k.
Murray's journey in the world of professional football started quite humbly. He first joined Montrose in Scotland's League One back in July 2010. His debut season with Montrose, 2010 - 2011, was a challenging one, with just one first team league appearance to his name.
In January 2011, Murray made a move from Montrose to Tayport, plying his trade amongst the Junior Teams in Scotland. His continued efforts led to a transfer to Arbroath in the Championship in Scotland in July 2014. In his first season with Arbroath, 2014 - 2015, he presented a promising display, making 35 first team appearances and netting 19 goals in league matches.
Murray then signed for Dundee United in the Premiership in Scotland for a fee of around £43k in July 2015. His time with Dundee United over two seasons (2015 - 2017) was marked with steady performances, tallying up 54 first team appearances and 17 goals in league matches.
July 2017 saw Murray transfer to Hibernian in the Premiership, where he made a respectable 22 first team appearances and scored six goals in the 2017 - 2018 season. Murray's journey then took him on a loan spell to Dundee in January 2018, again in the Premiership. He made 14 first team appearances and notched up three goals. Current season (2025 - 2026) statistics show that Murray has made 11 appearances for Dundee and scored once.
In a surprise move, Murray transferred from Hibernian to Bidvest Wits in the First Division in South Africa for a fee of around £128.5k in July 2018. Then, in September 2020, he returned to Scotland, transferring from Bidvest Wits to Queen's Park in the Championship. He impressed during the 2022 - 2023 season by making 22 first team appearances and netting 15 goals.
Yet another transfer came in January 2023, this time to Ross County in the Championship. His two seasons (2022 - 2024) at Ross County witnessed him making a total of 51 first team appearances and scoring 16 goals. The move eventually led to a return to Dundee in the Premiership in July 2024 for an undisclosed fee. His performances for Dundee over the 2024 and 2025 seasons have seen him make a series of first team appearances and a number of notable goals.
Additionally, in the League Cup 2025 - 2026 for Dundee, he scored two goals in four starts, and in the Scottish Cup 2024 - 2025 for Dundee, he scored one goal in three starts.
