Aidan Nesbitt

Aidan Nesbitt

Aidan Nesbitt of Falkirk was born in Paisley, Scotland on 5 February 1997 (age 28).

Born on 5 February 1997, Aidan Nesbitt, a Scottish native, remains a perennial figure in Scotland's football arena. Straddling the centre of the pitch as a central attacking midfielder, Aidan currently plies his trade for Falkirk, donned in their distinguished number 10 jersey. Standing at a height of 5ft 8in (1.74m) and tipping the scales at 10st 3lb (65kg), Aidan carries a presence that's felt on and off the ball.

Based on information sourced from Transfermarkt, Aidan's current market value roughly stands at £170k. His contract with Falkirk extends till 31 May 2027, providing ample time for further silverware pursuits within the Scottish Premiership.

Aidan has had a rather varied career, having been loaned to Partick Thistle from Celtic in February 2016 for the remainder of the 2015 - 2016 season, where he made seven appearances for the Scottish Championship side. It was during his time at Celtic that Aidan truly cut his teeth in football - that's when the pitch became a training ground, an arena, a battleground - a second home of sorts.

In August of the same year, Aidan was again on the move, packing up his kit and venturing to Greenock Morton on yet another loan from Celtic. This season saw him participate in a commendable 30 league matches, even managing to sneak in a goal. His sterling performances bore testament to his growing confidence and maturing technique fostered under the tutelage of Celtic's seasoned coaches.

In August 2017, Aidan bade farewell to Celtic, trading the familiar green and white hoops for MK Dons' all white kit, following a mysterious undisclosed fee that brought his spell in the Premiership to an end. During his tenure with the MK Dons (2017 - 2018), he made 14 appearances, scoring twice, establishing a budding reputation in England's League Two.

Aidan would return to the Scottish Premiership in January 2019, with Dundee United benefiting from his burgeoning talents. He found his way back to Greenock Morton in July 2019 for a second spell. His enhanced contributions were apparent - another 30 appearances with a goal scored.

By July 2021, Aidan was trading green and white for navy blue and white, having secured a move to Falkirk, a Premiership regular. He has since made significant contributions - 27 appearances and two goals in the 2022 - 2023 season, 31 appearances and two goals in the 2024 - 2025 season, and two appearances already in the current 2025 - 2026 season.

Aidan has also shown his flair on the bigger stages, namely in the League Cup 2025 - 2026 with one start and four appearances as a substitute, and the Scottish Cup 2024 - 2025, marking one start for his side.
