Career

[edit]

MacPherson started out in the youth system of St Mirren, prior to appearing for the first-team.[2] He made his career debut on 21 January 2017 during a Scottish Cup fixture with Dundee, while his Championship bow arrived ten months later against Falkirk on 21 October.[1][2] In total, MacPherson featured six times for St Mirren throughout 2017–18.[1] On 30 January 2018, Stranraer of League One loaned MacPherson.[1][3] One goal, versus Arbroath on 20 February, in nine matches followed as the club finished 5th.[1][4] He returned to his parent club in August 2018, before netting his first goal for them in December against Aberdeen at St Mirren Park.[1]

In October 2019, MacPherson signed a two-year contract extension with Saints, keeping him at the club until 2022.[5]

MacPherson moved on loan to St Johnstone in August 2021.[6] After MacPherson signed a pre-contract agreement with St Johnstone in January 2022, his parent club St Mirren recalled him in order to negotiate terms for selling him to St Johnstone on a permanent deal.[7] MacPherson joined St Johnstone permanently for an undisclosed fee on 24 January.[8]
