Mohun Bagan transfer news: Who is Jason Cummings?
Jason Steven Cummings, born on 1 August 1995, is a professional footballer known for his role as a striker. Born in Scotland, he currently represents the Australian national team. Cummings began his professional career with Hibernian, where he showcased his talent by scoring two goals in 16 appearances during the 2013-14 season. He continued to impress in the following years, becoming the top goalscorer for Hibs for three consecutive seasons, with over 20 goals in each season. His contributions played a vital role in Hibs’ victory in the Scottish Cup in 2016 and their subsequent promotion in 2017.
In June 2017, Cummings moved to Nottingham Forest but struggled to secure regular playing time with the first team. He had loan spells with Rangers, Peterborough United, and Luton Town. After a stint with Shrewsbury Town, he signed with Dundee in 2021, where he once again played a part in their promotion to the Scottish Premiership. In 2022, Cummings made a move to Central Coast Mariners, an Australian club.
Cummings made his international debut for Scotland in November 2017 but later made himself available for selection by the Australian national team. He made his first appearance for Australia in September 2022 and was subsequently included in their squad for the 2022 World Cup.
