Lyall Cameron (born 10 October 2002) is a Scottish professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Dundee.[1]

Career

Cameron was put on the bench for Dundee for their final game of the 2018–19 season at home to St Mirren. Despite being due to receive his professional debut, a red card for Darren O'Dea prevented Cameron from getting on, according to manager James McPake.[2] After scoring a game-winning goal in a friendly against Brechin City, Cameron made his professional debut for Dundee in the Scottish League Cup, coming off the bench in an away win over Raith Rovers.[3] In January 2020, Cameron made his league debut and first professional start in a loss away to Dunfermline Athletic.[4][5]

In October 2020, Cameron signed a new contract with Dundee keeping him at the club until 2023.[6] The next day, he joined Scottish League One side Peterhead on a season-long loan, stating his aim to prove himself with The Blue Toon and help him progress to play for Dundee in the future.[7][8] Cameron made his debut for Peterhead in an away win against Scottish Premiership side Dundee United in the League Cup.[9] He made his league debut for them the next week against Airdrieonians.[10] Cameron scored his first goal for Peterhead in their next league game the following week against Clyde.[11] In January 2021, following the three-week suspension of League One by the SFA and SPFL due to the worsening COVID-19 situation in Scotland, Cameron was recalled by Dundee.[12][13] After being recalled from Peterhead, manager Jim McInally praised Cameron's talent and professionalism, considering his spell at the club "as good as it gets when it comes to loan players."[14]

In June 2021, Cameron would once again join Peterhead on a season-long loan.[15] Despite this, Cameron would represent Dundee B against Peterhead in the Scottish Challenge Cup.[16]

On 25 February 2022, Cameron would join Scottish League One side Montrose on loan until the end of the season.[17] Cameron would score his first goal for the Gable Endies in an away victory over Falkirk.[18] Cameron would return to Dundee at the end of Montrose's season.[19]

On 9 July, Cameron would score his first competitive goal for Dundee in a Scottish League Cup victory over Hamilton Academical, and would do so again against Forfar Athletic two weeks later.[20][21] On 30 August, Cameron would start, score and be named man of the match in a win in the same cup against Falkirk.[22] Cameron would again notch a goal and MOTM honours the following month after scoring and playing well in a Scottish Challenge Cup victory away to Welsh champions The New Saints.[23]
