Robbie Thompson (born 26 April 2004) is a Scottish professional footballer who currently plays as a midfielder for Scottish League One side, Inverness Caledonian Thistle.

Career

In July 2021, Thompson signed for Inverness Caledonian Thistle after coming through the club's youth academies since joining at age 9, before being sent to fellow Invernessian side, Clachnacuddin in the Highland League on two consecutive loans stretching to January 2023. On 2 January 2023, Thompson made his professional debut in a 6–1 win over Cove Rangers in the Scottish Championship, before being loaned back to Clachnacuddin for the remainder of the season in March. On 16 September 2023, Thompson made his first start for Inverness, playing 71 minutes in a 1–0 loss that infamously "broke the curse" with Raith Rovers beating Inverness for the first time in 23 years.

In February 2024, Thompson was loaned out to Edinburgh side, The Spartans, who played in League Two, where he helped in propelling the club into the League One playoffs, before getting recalled by Inverness before The Spartans final two games against eventual winners, Dumbarton.
