Jason Holt, born on 19 February 1993 (age 33), is a Scottish midfielder with St Johnstone, where he wears the number eight shirt. A compact figure at 5ft 5in (1.64m), he has generally made his living in central areas, latterly as more of a defensive midfielder than an attacking one.
His early career was shaped by loan football, the usual hard schooling for a young Scottish midfielder needing minutes rather than promises. Those spells gave him senior exposure before he settled into more regular first-team work, and helped establish the neat, busy style that has carried him through a solid domestic career.
His most productive league season came at Rangers in 2015-16, when he scored 10 goals in 32 appearances. It was the outlier in attacking terms, but a useful marker of the player he could be when used higher up the pitch and given regular responsibility.
Holt is now at St Johnstone, with four League Cup appearances in 2025-26 and four appearances in total for the club across all competitions. His current market value is around £43,000, according to Transfermarkt.
His career has been that of a steady Scottish midfielder: loan development early on, a strong scoring season at Rangers, and a later role at St Johnstone built more around control and experience than headlines.
