Connor Barron

Connor Barron of Rangers was born in Kintore, Scotland on 29 August 2002 (age 23).

Well, let's dive into the riveting tale of the esteemed Connor Barron. My personal favourite, born and bred right here in Scotland on a sunny August 29th, 2002, and by the ripe old age of 23 he's found himself a cushy spot patrolling the midfield for Rangers. Standing a lofty 5ft 8in (1.75m) tall and tipping the scales at a sizable 10st 7lb (67kg), he's a veritable physical specimen, donning the illustrious number 8 jersey no less. Indeed, his colossal talent managed to catch the eye of the Scotland national team, and wouldn't you know it, they couldn't help but snap him up.

Where did our young hero begin his climb to the top? Why, as a trainee with Aberdeen in Scotland's Premiership, back in July 2017, of all places! Over three seasons in the top flight with the 'Dons'–2021-2022, 2022-2023, and 2023-2024–Barron realized his potential, playing in 59 league matches and netting 2 barnstorming goals. Actual goals, mind you, not missed opportunities or shanks into the stands.

Now, none of us truly relish a demotion, even if it's disguised as a 'loan', but in September 2020, with all the composure of a man thrice his age, Barron accepted his fate and trotted off to Brechin City in the Highland League of all places.

Naturally, Aberdeen had the foresight to not let go of such a distinguished talent, and in June 2021, young Barron was welcomed back into the fold. He went on another rousing stint in the 2021–2022 season, followed by a loan to the devastatingly formidable Kelty Hearts in League One from August 2021 to January 2022, then back again to Aberdeen for two more seasons of breathtaking play.

Finally, in an enigmatic twist, Barron was ushered from Aberdeen to Rangers in July 2024 for an undisclosed fee, probably involving the GDP of a small nation or a large herd of Highland cattle. Here he played 28 times in the 2024-2025 season and has notched up three appearances this current season of 2025-2026. He has also graced League Cup, Scottish Cup, and Champions League Qualifier matches in a Rangers shirt. The thrill of it all is positively vertiginous.
