Connor McAvoy (born 16 February 2002) is a Scottish professional footballer who plays as a defender for National League club Wealdstone.
Born in Chertsey, [2] McAvoy began his career in the youth setup at Staines Town; whom he represented from the age of 4 until 8, [4] before he joined Fulham in summer of 2010. [3] In July 2018, he signed a two-year scholarship contract at Craven Cottage, [3] and after impressing in the youth setup, he signed his first professional contract in July 2019, barely a year after penning his scholarship deal. [5]
On 1 October 2019, McAvoy played the full 90 minutes in the EFL Trophy Group Stage for the U21s during a 1-0 away defeat Milton Keynes Dons. [6] That would be his only appearance during that year's EFL Trophy campaign; his next three appearance would come in the following campaign, as he played against Cambridge United, [7] Peterborough United [8] and Burton Albion respectively. [9]
In October 2021, McAvoy was loaned out to National League side Wealdstone for a month, [10] after impressing during the first month of the deal; the loan was extended until January 2022, [11] then until the end of the campaign on 10 January 2022. [12]
On 31 January 2023, McAvoy joined Scottish Championship side Partick Thistle on loan until the end of the season, [13] but after making six appearances for The Jags, he ruptured his medial ligament against Greenock Morton on 11 March [14] and returned to parent club, Fulham five days later. [15]
On 14 September 2023, whilst still recovering from injury, McAvoy signed a new deal with The Cottagers until at least the summer of 2025, with an option of a further year. [16] He returned from the injury in December 2023, but this was after McAvoy had suffered numerous set backs in his recovery; which included three surgeries after the screws came loose in his knee. [17]
On 30 August 2024, McAvoy returned to Scotland as he was loaned to Championship side, Ayr United until the end of the season. [18] Having failed to make an appearance, he was recalled in January 2025, subsequently returning to National League side Wealdstone on loan for the remainder of the season. [19] In June 2025, it was announced that McAvoy would be leaving Fulham upon the expiry of his contract. [20]
On 1 August 2025, he returned to National League side Wealdstone on a permanent deal following two loan spells. [21]
McAvoy qualifies for Scotland through his father, Gordon; who was born in Paisley. [17] He has represented the country at Scotland under-17, Scotland under-18, Scotland under-19 and Scotland under-21 levels. [22]
