Hamilton Academical Football Club are delighted to announce that Marcus Syme has signed a contract extension that will see him remain at the club until the end of the 2026/27 season.
Joining the club when he was 7 and coming through the Accies Academy, the 17-year-old full back made his first team debut in a 4-0 away win over Kelty Hearts this season.
Marcus has also represented the club in the UEFA Youth League where he made 2 appearances, including a 4-2 win over Molde FK.
On signing his new deal, Marcus said: “It’s amazing to extend my contract with the club. I’ve been here since I was 7 so to stay here for another year is something I’m really excited about.
“I’ve missed large parts of this season through injury, so next season I’m hoping for more chances in the first team and I’m going to work hard to take them when they come.”
Darian MacKinnon said: “Marcus is a talented young defender. He’s got good pace, he’s powerful and I’ve given him some chances to be part of the squad at the end of the season.
Like the rest of the youngsters, it’s now about working hard and taking the chances when they come.”
