Brooklyn Kabongolo

Brooklyn Kabongolo of Livingston was born on 16 October 2002 (age 23).

Brooklyn Kabongolo, born on 16 October 2002 (age 23), is a French central defender whose career is tied most clearly to Livingston. An imposing 6ft 5in (1.95m), he brings obvious size to the middle of the back line, which is rarely a bad starting point in Scottish football.

His most productive league spell in scoring terms came with Arbroath in 2025-26, when he made 11 league appearances and scored two goals. That same season also brought the main body of his Livingston work, with 16 league appearances and two goals, giving his career its strongest club connection so far.

Kabongolo’s profile remains a modest one: a central defender with Livingston as the main reference point, a short but useful Arbroath spell, and a current market value of around £21,000 according to Transfermarkt.

Kabongolo's recent transfer history is built around low-cost moves: Southend United to Oxford City, Oxford City to Aveley and Aveley to Livingston were all free transfers. Livingston then sent him to Arbroath on loan in October 2025 before his return in January 2026, making the spell a short-term minutes move rather than a permanent break.
