Kyle Magennis (born 26 August 1998) is a Scottish professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Scottish Premiership club Hibernian.[2] He has also represented Scotland at under-17 and under-21 level.
Career
Club
St Mirren
Born in Glasgow, Magennis attended Paisley Grammar School.[3] Magennis joined St Mirren's youth academy at the age of five[2] and remained there throughout his youth career until making his debut for the senior team against Hibernian in October 2016, aged 18, in the Scottish Championship.[2][4] He continued to appear for the club throughout the season, scoring his first goal for the club in a narrow win over Queen of the South.[5] Having impressed manager Jack Ross with his performances, he was offered a new contract with St Mirren in December 2016 which extended his contract with the club until summer 2019.[6]
Now established as a first team player in the Saints squad, Magennis signed a new contract committing him to the club until the summer of 2020,[7] and after clinching the 2017–18 Scottish Championship title, he further extended his contract with St Mirren to 2021.[8][9] He was in the side which secured their status in the Scottish Premiership via the relegation playoff in May 2019.[10]
Magennis and Saints suffered a major blow in January 2020, when he injured his knee during a 1–0 defeat to Rangers, ending his season after having appeared in every match of the campaign until suffering the injury.[11] In September 2020, St Mirren stated they had rejected a "substantial" offer for Magennis from Hibernian.[12] A few days later another offer from the same club was accepted.[13]
Hibernian
Magennis signed a five-year deal with Hibernian on 5 October 2020.[13][14]
On 1 August 2021, Magennis scored Hibernian’s opening Scottish Premiership goal for the 2021–22 season against Motherwell which ended in a 3–2 victory for Hibs.[15] Magennis had a good start to the 2021–22 season, but then missed most of it due to groin and knee injuries.[16]
International
Selected for the Scotland under-20 squad in the 2017 Toulon Tournament.[17] The team went to claim the bronze medal.[18] It was the nations first ever medal at the competition.[1]
Having played at the 2017 Toulon Tournament,[19] Magennis made his debut for the Scotland under-21 team in a 2–1 win against the Netherlands in September 2018.[20]
