Keanu Baccus

Western Sydney Wanderers

After rising from the Wanderers Academy to serve as co-captain of the youth team, Baccus signed a two-year senior contract in May 2017.

St Mirren

In April 2022, St. Mirren boss Stephen Robinson announced that Baccus was joining the Scottish Premiership club following the conclusion of the 2022 A League campaign. A few months later, the signing was confirmed by the club as a two-year deal. At the end of his contract, after 64 games and 3 goals for St. Mirren, Keanu decided his future lay elsewhere and decided not to sign a new contract.

Mansfield Town

On 22 May 2024 it was announced that he had joined Mansfield Town on a free transfer. The Stags had just been promoted from EFL League Two into EFL League One by finishing in an automatic promotion position in the 2023–24 season.

Return to St Mirren

On 7 August 2025, Baccus returned to St Mirren on a two-year deal with the option for a further year.

Baccus qualified for the Tokyo 2020 Olympics as part of the Australia under-23 team. The team beat Argentina in their first group match but were unable to win another match. They were therefore not in medal contention. In September 2022, Baccus debuted for the senior national team as a second-half substitute in a friendly against New Zealand. On 8 November 2022, he was named in Australia's World Cup squad for the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar. Baccus was used as a substitute in Australia's first three games in the tournament, before making his first senior international start in Australia's loss in the round of sixteen to Argentina.
