Fraser Anderson Fyvie (born 27 March 1993) is a Scottish professional footballer, who plays for Hibernian as a midfielder. Fyvie has previously played for Aberdeen and Wigan Athletic, and has represented Scotland at under-15, under-17, under-19 and under-21 levels.
Fyvie became the youngest ever player to play for Aberdeen, when he made his debut against Hamilton Academical at the age of 16, and won the Man of the Match award for the game. Fyvie scored his first senior goal for Aberdeen on 27 January 2010, against Hearts at Tynecastle. This goal made him the youngest ever goalscorer in a Scottish Premier League match, breaking the record previously held by Dundee United player David Goodwillie. The next day Fyvie signed a new three-year deal with Aberdeen.
In August 2010, he was ruled out for the rest of the 2010–11 season with a cruciate ligament injury sustained in a League Cup tie against Alloa Athletic. He returned to the first team in a 2–0 defeat against St Johnstone in May 2011.
Having recovered fully from his injury sustained in the previous season, Fyvie began to establish himself in the Aberdeen team, regularly featuring in the starting eleven. He scored his first league goal of the 2011–12 season against Dunfermline Athletic in an SPL trial game of Friday night football. He also received the first red card of his career for foul and abusive language towards a linesman, in a 2–2 draw against St Mirren. Fyvie scored his second goal of the season in a Scottish Cup fifth round replay victory, away to Queen of the South.
