Oludare Olufunwa

Oludare Olufunwa of St Johnstone was born on 29 July 2001 (age 23).

Oludare Olufunwa, born on the 29th of July 2001 in England, is a 23-year-old defender well-versed in the right back position. He currently plays for the Scottish Premiership club, St Johnstone, donning the number 42 jersey. Standing at 6ft 2in (1.89m) tall and weighing in at 12st 1lb (77kg), he makes an imposing figure on the football field.

His current market value is estimated to be around £100k, as reported by Transfermarkt. His contractual agreement with St Johnstone is due to expire on the 31st of May 2025, with only three months remaining.

Tracing back to his career path, in July 2016, Olufunwa started his professional journey at Southampton, a Premier League team in England. He switched allegiance to another Premier League team, Liverpool, in August 2022. A year later, in August 2023, the defender moved to St Johnstone in the Scottish Premiership.

While his debut season (2023-2024) at St Johnstone witnessed Olufunwa making 11 first-team appearances in league matches, the current season (2024-2025) has yet to see him on the field for the team. The player was loaned to Hamilton Academical, a Championship team in Scotland, in September 2024. During his stint in Hamilton, Olufunwa participated in three first-team league matches.

On the conclusion of his loan term, Olufunwa returned to St Johnstone in January 2025. His performances mirror his debut season, having made 11 first team appearances during the 2023-2024 season, while currently yet to take the field in the 2024-2025 season.
