Career
Lochhead began his career as a youth player with both Rangers and Celtic,[1] before joining Dundee United in August 2014.[1] After spending a year and a half at Tannadice, Lochhead left United on 11 January 2016.[2][3] After six months without a club, Lochhead signed a short-term deal with recently promoted Scottish Championship club Dunfermline Athletic on 29 July 2016, after appearing as a trialist in a number of matches for the side.[3][4]
His first appearance in a Dunfermline shirt came two days later, in a Scottish League Cup match against his former side Dundee United, where he came on as a 93rd-minute substitute for James Thomas.[5] Lochhead subsequently signed contract extensions with the Pars in November 2016[6] and May 2017,[7] keeping him at the club until May 2017 and 2018 respectively. On 31 January 2017, Lochhead moved on a development loan to Scottish League Two club Clyde until the end of the 2016–17 season,[8] where he made 4 appearances.
Lochhead started the 2017–18 well for the Pars, making a number of first-team appearances before joining Scottish League One side Forfar Athletic on a short-term loan on 3 November 2017[9] After just 8 first team appearances, Lochhead left Dunfermline in May 2018.[10] He joined National Premier Leagues Victoria club Bentleigh Greens in February 2019.[11]
