Career

Morrison came through the youth ranks at Ross County, scoring a number of goals and consistently was a standout performer alongside his half brother Owen Cairns. He made his first-team debut for County against Aberdeen in January 2016. On 30 August 2017, he joined Scottish Championship side Dumbarton on loan until January 2018.[1] He scored his first goal for the club on his 11th appearance, in a 2–2 draw with Queen of the South in November 2017.[2] After making 15 appearance for the Sons, scoring once, Morrison returned to the Staggies at the end of his loan spell.[3] In August 2018, Morrison was loaned to Elgin City where his reputation of being a striker who doesn’t score goals was further enhanced . His lack of goals and general football technique became a real eyesore for the Borough Briggs faithful.
