Youth career
Donald is a right back at Manchester United. Injuries have disrupted his availability and as such he's seldom been a regular in any side since the start of 2011/12. However, when fit his performances were good and he was rewarded with a professional contract in 2013.
He found opportunities hard to come by in 2014/15 but forced his way into the Under-21 side in the second half of the season, often playing in a new centre back role.
On 2nd October 2015, Donald joined Wigan on a two month loan. He got injured in November but still did enough to have his loan extended by a month. In February 2016, Donald joined the first team away to Sunderland due to injuries and came on as a first half substitute. In April 2016, Donald scored his first goal at Under-21 level.
International
Donald has represented Scotland at Under-17 and Under-19 levels. He is eligible for England too.
