Douglas (born 4 September 1989, Glasgow, Scotland) is a Scottish
footballer who plays for T-Mobile Ekstraklasa club Lech Poznań as a
left back. He joined the club in May 2013 after previously playing
for Dundee United.
Douglas attended Lourdes Secondary in
Glasgow and played for Livingston youth teams, but was released at
the age of sixteen because he was considered "too small". He spent a
year out of football before joining Queen's Park, becoming part of
their first team squad in 2008. Douglas made his senior debut in
August 2008, in a Scottish Second Division match against Stranraer. He went on to become a first team regular for
Queen's Park, playing for the amateur club while also working as a
refrigeration engineer. His performances saw him linked with a
number of professional clubs, despite Queen's being relegated to the
Third Division in 2009. Douglas continued to impress at the lower
level, scoring nine goals from his full back position during the
2009-10 season (he was the Queen's Park top scorer).
On 20
June 2010 he signed professionally with Dundee United. His debut for
his new club came in August of that year, as a substitute against
Inverness Caledonian Thistle in the SPL. At 28 May 2013 he signed a
two-year deal with Polish club Lech Poznań.
Since making the
move, the 25-year-old full back has established himself as a key
player for the Polish top flight club, proving himself to be both
reliable defensively and a dangerous threat in attack.
The
left back made 76 appearances over two seasons for Queens Park
before moving to Dundee United. In his second season at Queens Park
Douglas scored an impressive nine goals.
Over his three seasons at Dundee United he made 75 appearances,
scoring four goals
Douglas made 18 appearances in his first season in Poland and
has already featured seven times this season. He has scored one
goal (against Wisla Krakow on the opening day of this season).
Douglas has been booked seven times in Poland, but has carved
out a reputation as an ‘aggressive tackler’ and he certainly
seems to be enjoying his Polish adventure.
