Dylan Dykes (born 14 March 1996) is a Scottish footballer who plays for West of Scotland team Pollok.[2]
Dykes played youth football with Rangers, signing a contract until the summer of 2016.[3] He was released upon the expiration of his contract in May that year.[4]
Dykes then signed for fellow Scottish Premiership side Ross County on 22 July 2016.[1] [5] He made his professional debut in a Highland derby against Inverness CT on 28 April 2017.[6]
Having had limited first team opportunities at Ross County, Dykes joined League One club Stranraer in January 2018 on a development loan for the rest of the 2017–18 season.[7]
Dykes left Ross County in January 2019 and signed for Greenock Morton.[8] Dykes joined Stenhousemuir on loan before joining Cumbernauld Colts in February 2020.[9]
Dykes agreed a move to West of Scotland team St Cadoc's in May 2020 before moving to Pollok two years later.[10] He made his debut at home to Hurlford United in March, and scored his first goal from the penalty spot against Troon F.C. in a 2-1 win in April.[11]
In October 2022, Pollok announced that Dykes had undergone treatment following a cancer diagnosis, triggering a wave of support from his former clubs and the wider footballing world.[12] [13] [14]
