Biography

Club: Hull City

Previous clubs: Celtic, Kilmarnock (loan), Ross County, Burton Albion

Caltex Socceroos cap number: 568

Debut: 15/10/2013 v Canada

Scooped up by Celtic in 2012, Irvine spent time with Kilmarnock and Ross County where he developed a reputation as a versatile and energetic midfielder or centre-back.

His form in Scotland was noticed by Championship side Burton Albion, who successfully converted him into a box-to-box midfielder.

After finishing his debut season in England with 10 league goals and Burton's player of the year award, he was rewarded with a move to Hull City and is now an important figure at both club and international level.

Best Caltex Socceroos moment:

Dangerous from set-pieces or arriving late into the box, Irvine opened his Caltex Socceroos account with a thumping header in a 2-0 win over the United Arab Emirates in March 2017.

Hyundai A-League connection:

Irvine spent two years in Melbourne Victory's youth set-up before being spotted by Celtic.
