Following a successful spell at Leith Athletic, Murphy signed for Musselburgh Athletic in 2016.[3] During his two seasons at the Burgh, Murphy caught the eye of then Berwick Rangers manager Robbie Horn who signed him for the 2018–2019 season.[4] He made his debut for the Wee Gers in a 4–0 Scottish League Cup defeat against Annan on 17 July 2018.[5]

Murphy signed for Tranent Juniors in 2019 and went on to be part of the season to win the 2021–22 East of Scotland Football League.[6][7]
