Career

Club career

Gordon made his professional debut for Hamilton Academical on 1 February 2011, in a 0–2 defeat against St Johnstone in the Scottish Premier League.[2] He signed a new two-year contract extension in April 2012.[3] Before the start of the 2012–13 season, Gordon stated his determination to become a first-team regular.[4] In November 2012, Gordon stated that he believed the club's position in the league table was not merited by their recent performances,[5] while in January 2013 he stated that recent results were not a reflection of recent performances.[6] In February 2013 he stated that the club's upcoming "hectic" game schedule was not concerning.[7] On 5 March 2013, in a league game against Morton, Gordon scored his first goal for the club.[8] Gordon was awarded the 'Man of the Match' award for his performance in that game.[9] Gordon later commented that he hoped his goal, and the victory, would spur the team onto a good run of form in the league.[10] Gordon was named Hamilton's Player of the Year for the 2012–13 season.[11] Ahead of the 2013–14 season, Gordon talked about the importance of home advantage in the forthcoming campaign.[12] He signed a new two-year contract extension in February 2014.[13]

In April 2014 he was selected to the 2013–14 Championship PFA Scotland Team of the Year, alongside Hamilton teammates Anthony Andreu and Ali Crawford.[14]

In January 2015 the club rejected a transfer bid for Gordon from Polish club Jagiellonia Białystok.[15]

In May 2016 it was announced that Gordon would leave the club at the end of the season.[16]

International career

He made his international debut for Scotland U19 in May 2011.[17]

Personal life

Gordon is of Polish descent. His mother Barbara's family hail from Kraków, meaning he is also eligible to represent Poland at international level.[18][19]
