Career

On 11 January 2012 Vaughan was given a 2+1⁄2-year professional contract by Raith Rovers,[1] making his debut for the first-team as a sub in the 87th minute in the final match of season 2011–12 season away to Greenock Morton.[2]

On 4 January 2017, Vaughan signed a one-year contract extension with Raith, and on the same date joined fellow Scottish Championship side Dumbarton on loan until the end of the 2016–17 season.[3] He scored his first goal for he Sons with a solo effort in a 2–2 away draw with Falkirk in February 2017.[4] He scored his fourth goal for the club against Dundee United in a 2–2 draw on 29 April 2017, a result that almost guaranteed Dumbarton's safety with one match to spare.[5]

On 19 January 2019, Vaughan scored a second half hat-trick in a 3–0 win over Dunfermline Athletic in the Scottish Cup – his first professional career hat trick.[6]

Vaughan has suffered four ACL injuries (two to his right knee and two to his left) in August 2015,[7] January 2019,[8] September 2019[9] and August 2021,[10] missing several months each time after being operated on. He returned from the fourth rehabilitation in November 2022.[11]

He was awarded a testimonial match in March 2024.[12][13] That season he played over 40 times as Raith reached the Scottish Premiership promotion play-offs, but at the start of the 2024–25 season he had more injury problems, with a groin issue followed by a hamstring tear which required surgery.[14]
