Career

Sheffield Wednesday

Liam Shaw joined Sheffield Wednesday at the age of eight and worked his way up through the club.[2] He would sign his first professional contract on the 21 December 2018, signing a contract until the summer of 2021.[3]

He went out on loan on the 21 November 2019 to National League side Chesterfield for one month,[4] where he would play 5 games in total for The Spireites.

Later that season, he would make his professional debut for Sheffield Wednesday against Queens Park Rangers on the 11 July 2020.[5] and play one other game against Middlesbrough on the final game of the 2019–20 season. During the 2020–21 season, he would become more of a first team regular which would see him score his first professional goal against Middlesbrough on the 29 December 2020,[6] as well as being shown a straight red card against Reading on the 3 December 2020.[7] His form would see him linked with a move to Scottish Premiership side Celtic.[8] In February 2021 it was reported that Shaw had signed a pre-contract agreement with Celtic,[9] with a £300,000 compensation fee mooted.[10] But he would remain with the Sheffield Wednesday first team, and a few days later would be sent off for the second time that season against Birmingham City.[11]

Celtic

On 10 March 2021, Sheffield Wednesday confirmed that Shaw had signed a pre-contract agreement with Scottish Premiership side Celtic, but would "remain a Sheffield Wednesday player until the expiry of his current contract and will be available for selection for the remainder of the season".[12] It was officially confirmed by Celtic on 15 June 2021, where they announced he had signed a four-year contract with the club.[13] He made his debut for Celtic in a UEFA Europa League tie against Real Betis on 9 December 2021.[14][15]

After making only one further appearance for Celtic in the first part of the 2021–22 season, Shaw was loaned to Motherwell in January 2022.[16]
