Fairly, let's meander through the labyrinthine career of Kieran Wright; a seemingly permanent passenger on the loan merry-go-round. Wright, born on the bleakest of Scottish winter days - January 4, in the year 2000 (which makes him 25, if you're rubbish with maths), cuts a strapping figure as a goalkeeper, at a heft of 6ft 2in (1.89m) and tipping the scales at 13st 3lb (84kg).
Currently adorning the crisp number 32 jersey for Rangers, Wright's market value is on record to be around €50k (approximately £43k for those shackled by the chains of Brexit). That's if the soothsayers at Transfermarkt are to echo the truth, of course.
To kick-start his career, young Wright inked a trainee contract with Rangers in 2016. Notably, now in the season of 2025-2026, even a blindfolded sloth could match his first team appearances for the club- that'd be zero, if you were wondering.
Ah, but then came the loans. The glamour of Albion Rovers awaited him in 2018, swiftly followed by an exotic transfer to Raith Rovers in the same year. A loan spell at Alloa Athletic glittered in 2020, but the lure of Partick Thistle was too much to resist later that year.
Naturally, one can't resist the allure of Alloa Athletic for too long, and so Wright returned in 2021, quickly shuffling on to the dizzy heights of a Dumbarton loan in 2022. Alas, it wasn't one to write home about, as he returned to Rangers later that same year, sleeves dripping with unused substitute badges.
Of course, truly tantalising talents don't go unnoticed for long, and Livingston duly swooped in 2024. In this tenure, Wright attained the legendary status of having made a singular first team appearance. No doubt it was an eye-watering performance etched forever in the hearts of the Livingston faithful. Post this historic landmark, he jogged back to Rangers that same year.
But hold your breath, the drama doesn't end. Wright found himself transferred to Airdrieonians in 2024. In comparison to his past exploits, this was a banquet of football with Wright making 16 lustrous first team appearances. Following this veritable feast of football, the prodigal son returned yet again to Rangers in 2025.
And so here we find ourselves, in 2026, marvelling at the glittering career of Kieran Wright, securing the Rangers' bench with admirable dedication.
