Barney Stewart

Barney Stewart of Falkirk was born on 7 April 2004 (age 22).

Barney Stewart, born on 7 April 2004 (age 22), is an English striker whose senior career is already heavily tied to Falkirk. A commanding 6ft 3in (1.91m) forward, he has become a regular part of their first team rather than a fringe name passing through.

His league record at Falkirk stands at 33 appearances and 10 goals across two seasons, which gives the shape of it plainly enough. The 2025-2026 campaign has been his most productive so far, with eight goals in 17 league appearances, plus two more in four Scottish Cup outings.

That leaves him on 21 appearances and 10 goals in all competitions for Falkirk in 2025-2026, a useful return for a developing striker still establishing the level of his game. His current market value is around £425,000, according to Transfermarkt.

Stewart’s career remains a Falkirk story above all: two league seasons, a growing scoring record, and a continuing place in the side in 2025-2026.

Barney Stewart has been a full-use striker in the Premiership this season, starting all 17 of his league appearances for Falkirk and scoring eight goals.

Stewart’s senior trajectory is still short but upward in level: from Heriot-Watt University to Falkirk, with a Dunfermline Athletic loan built into his first year in the SPFL system. At 22, the profile is less about a long club history and more about whether his early scoring rate can translate into a settled top-flight role.

The transfer record points to a low-cost development path rather than a major-fee investment. Falkirk signed Stewart from Heriot-Watt University for an undisclosed fee in January 2025, then used a loan to Dunfermline Athletic in September 2025 before his return in January 2026 – a sequence that suggests staged exposure rather than a straight-line rise.
