Wilkie graduated from the Stockport County Centre of Excellence,[1] before signing for Hamilton Academical on 19 August 2009.[2] He made his professional debut for Hamilton on 22 August 2009, in a 3–0 loss against Aberdeen.[3] Wilkie left Hamilton at the end of the 2011–12 season.[4]

After the expiry of his contract with Accies, Wilkie joined Greenock Morton on trial.[5] He scored in a reserve match against Port Glasgow Juniors and was expected to sign on 30 July 2012.[6] He signed a one-year contract later that week after impressing in his trial period.[7] Wilkie was released in May 2013.[8]

Wilkie signed a one-year contract with Livingston on 26 July 2013 after a successful trial period with the club.[9] He made his competitive debut for Livingston on 27 July 2013, as a second-half substitute in a Scottish Challenge Cup match against Berwick Rangers.[10] He was released in May 2014.[11]

In August 2014, Wilkie signed for Highland League club Nairn County.[12] He moved on loan to Berwick Rangers in March 2015, until the end of the 2014–15 season.[13][14]

Wilkie then signed with East Fife for the 2015–16 season.[15] During his first season at the club he won the Scottish League Two Player of the Month award for March 2016[16] and at the end of the season he was voted into the PFA Scotland League Two Team of the Year.[17]

Personal life

Wilkie's family relocated to north-west England from Scotland in 2002 when elder brother Ryan signed for Liverpool;[22] Ryan's career did not fulfil early promise due to injury and he later became a physiotherapist. Their father Dougie Wilkie played for Queen's Park and had just joined Dundee United when he was left paralysed in the 1979 Invergowrie rail accident, and became a coach and scout.[23] The family members formed their own 'W Academy' for children, based at historic cricket ground Shawholm from 2023.[24][25]
