Michael Moffat is a footballer currently playing in the Scottish Championship for Dunfermline Athletic as a striker.
Moffat spent six seasons in Junior football with Girvan before signing for Ayr United in January 2011. Moffat scored eleven goals in his first season at Ayr, including the winner against Brechin City to get the club promoted to the First Division. The following season, Moffat netted seven goals for the Honest Men, all of which came in the First Division. During the 2011–12 campaign, Moffat missed only one match, a 3–0 Challenge Cup victory over Raith Rovers, he also appeared for Ayr at Hampden Park for League Cup semi-final against local rivals, Kilmarnock. In June 2012, Moffat signed a new deal along with Mark Roberts to stay at the Somerset Park outfit, following the club's relegation to the Second Division.
After an impressive 2013–14 season, in which he finished as league top scorer, Moffat signed for League One rivals Dunfermline Athletic. His first competitive goal for the side came in his debut against Annan Athletic in the Scottish League Cup. However, in his first season with Dunfermline, Moffat was unable to replicate the consistent goal scoring he had seen at both Girvan and then Ayr United, managing only six competitive goals for the Pars in the 2014–15 season. His second season with the club started positively, with the striker surpassing his previous season's tally in his first twelve competitive matches. Of these goals, three were scored in consecutive league matches against Brechin City, Cowdenbeath and Peterhead, whilst he also scored a brace against league rivals Forfar Athletic in the Scottish Challenge Cup.
