Ben Parkinson, born on 10 March 2005 (age 21), is an English striker whose senior career is tied most closely to Falkirk. He had an early league outing with Newcastle United in 2023-24, but the bulk of his first-team football has come in Scotland.
At Falkirk, Parkinson has worn the number 7 shirt and worked his way into the senior picture across two seasons, making 11 league appearances. In 2026-27, his sharper work has come in the cups, with three goals in four League Cup appearances and one in two Scottish Cup games.
Across all competitions in 2026-27, he has made eight appearances for Falkirk and scored four goals. Transfermarkt values him at around £128,000.
Parkinson’s career remains at an early professional stage, with Falkirk providing the main body of evidence so far: a young striker getting senior minutes, with cup goals already giving his record a bit of shape.
