Leon McCann

Leon McCann of Falkirk was born on 16 March 2000 (age 25).

Leon McCann, born on 16th March 2000, hails from Scotland and at 25 years of age, has made his mark as a sturdy defender in the Scottish football scene. His primary position is left back, playing in this role for Falkirk and proudly donning the number 3 jersey. Standing at 5ft 7in tall (1.71m) and with a physical presence of 10st 3lb (65kg), McCann is a force to reckon with on the field.

As per Transfermarkt, his current market value is rather modest, hovering around £85k. But it should not be forgotten that the value of a player does not lie solely in their monetary worth; their skill on the pitch and contributions to the team hold immeasurable worth.

Experiencing several essential shifts in his career, McCann first found himself on a loan transfer from Hamilton Academical to Airdrieonians in August 2019 - both clubs contributing greatly to the Scottish League One and Championship manifestly. Later, in January 2020, this temporary arrangement became a permanent transfer for an undisclosed fee, marking McCann's commitment to the Airdrieonians.

However, it wasn't until July 2021 that McCann made the decisive move to Falkirk, a club contending in the Scottish Premiership. In his debut season of 2022-2023, McCann made a commendable effort with 25 first team appearances and even netted a goal in league matches. The following season of 2024-2025 saw a slight decline in appearances to 15 matches, with a singular goal under his belt. During the current season of 2025-2026, McCann has maintained a steady run of 14 first team appearances.

McCann's contributions to Falkirk extend beyond the Premiership; he's made his mark in the League Cup 2025-2026 with three starts, while also starting in the Scottish Cup 2025-2026. Clearly, Leon McCann has proven himself to be a reliable and versatile player for Falkirk, contributing extensively both in the domestic league and cup matches.
