Bailey Rice

Rice has made 6 Premiership appearances this season, starting 2 and coming off the bench 4 times, and has contributed 3 League Cup appearances – that pattern of usage points to a rotational, squad-based role at Kilmarnock during the 2026-27 campaign, with his match involvement weighted toward short spells rather than long runs of starts.

Rice averages a 6.52 rating this season with a high of 6.94 and a low of 6.15 – a relatively tight range that indicates steady, consistent performances across his appearances.

Rice is 19 and plays as a central defensive midfielder; his senior trajectory runs through Rangers and a loan to Kilmarnock, with an initial arrival at Rangers in July 2022 followed by the July 2026 move to Kilmarnock – an early-career pathway focused on breaking into first-team football rather than a settled starting position to date.

Joined Rangers in July 2022 and moved to Kilmarnock on loan in July 2026 – the most recent move is explicitly a loan from Rangers, while the earlier transfer to Rangers carries no fee detail; the pattern is consistent with a young player being positioned for top-flight minutes via temporary senior assignments.
