Kenneth William Dougall (born 7 May 1993) is an Australian professional soccer player who plays as a defensive midfielder for Buriram United and the Australia national team. He has previously played for Brisbane City, Telstar, Sparta Rotterdam, Barnsley and Blackpool.

Club career

[edit]

Early years

[edit]

Dougall played as a junior at Samford Rangers in 2003,[3] as well as attending the Queensland Academy of Sport as a 15-year-old. He joined the Brisbane Roar youth team in 2009, when he was 16.[3]

In 2010, he shared the Roar's Youth Player of the Year award with goalkeeper Matt Acton.[4] Unable to break into the Brisbane Roar team, he says because he "was not yet good enough,"[3] he dropped down to National Premier Leagues Queensland, where he started his senior career playing for Brisbane City. During his eighteen months at the club, he was awarded the league's Young Player of the Year award in 2013.[5]

Telstar

[edit]

In July 2014, Dougall signed for Telstar in the Eerste Divisie and made his debut on 3 October 2014 against Sparta Rotterdam, coming on as an 84th-minute substitute in a 4–3 win.[6] Dougall scored his first goal for the club against Den Bosch on 12 December 2014.[7] On 6 May 2015, it was announced that Dougall would leave Telstar after just one season at the club following a breakdown in contract discussions.[8]

Sparta Rotterdam

[edit]

On 29 May 2015, Dougall signed a two-year contract with Eerste Divisie side Sparta Rotterdam.[9] Dougall quickly established himself at the club starting in the first fixture of the season away to RKC Waalwijk in a 1–1 draw. He then penned a contract extension after just 6 months keeping him at the club until the summer of 2019.[10]

Barnsley

[edit]

On 27 July 2018, Dougall joined newly relegated League One side Barnsley on an initial two-year deal with an option for a further year for an undisclosed fee.[11] On 15 March 2019 Dougall suffered a broken leg in a match, initially attempting to play on.[12]

Dougall was released by Barnsley on 25 June 2020.[13]

Blackpool

[edit]

Dougall joined Blackpool in October 2020, signing a two-year contract.[14]

On 21 May 2021, Dougall scored his second goal of the season in a 3–3 draw with Oxford United in the second leg of their play-off semi-final. The result saw Blackpool win 6–3 on aggregate and progress to the final, where they met Lincoln City at Wembley Stadium on 30 May.[15] In the final, Dougall scored both goals for Blackpool in their 2–1 win, securing promotion to the Championship for the first time in six years.[16][17] The club's owner, Simon Sadler, named his pug "Kenny" in acknowledgment of Dougall's role in their promotion.[18]

On 7 October 2021, Dougall signed a new two-year contract with the club.[19]

Buriram United

[edit]

On 24 January 2024, Dougall signed for Thai League 1 club Buriram United for an undisclosed fee.[20]

International career

[edit]

Dougall earned four caps for the Australian U23 side in 2015.

On 25 May 2021, he was called up for the Australian national team for their remaining 2022 FIFA World Cup qualification matches in June.[21] He made his debut on 3 June 2021 against Kuwait,[22] a 3–0 victory, and made his first start four days later in a 5–1 victory over Chinese Taipei.[23]

He was a substitute in Australia's goalless home draw with Saudi Arabia on 11 November 2021.[24]
