Connor Barron

Connor Barron of Rangers was born in Kintore, Scotland on 29 August 2002 (age 23).

Connor Barron, born on 29 August 2002 (age 23), is a Scottish central midfielder with Rangers.

His senior profile was built at Aberdeen, where his most productive league season came in 2022-23, with one goal in 17 appearances. That was enough to mark him out as a tidy, developing midfielder rather than anything requiring brass bands.

At Rangers, his record stands at six appearances, all in the Europa League during 2026-27. For now, his career is still at the stage of being shaped rather than settled.
