George Stanger, born 15 August 2000 (age 25), is a New Zealand central defender with Kilmarnock, where he wears squad number 14. At 6ft 3in (1.91m), he is a tall presence at the back, which is hardly a drawback in the Scottish game.
His most productive league season came with Alloa Athletic in 2022-2023, when he scored three goals in 25 appearances. That spell gave him regular senior football and a platform beyond the usual churn of development loans.
Stanger has since moved on to Kilmarnock. In 2026-2027, he has made two league appearances and three League Cup appearances, giving him five outings for the club across all competitions. His market value is around £170,000, according to Transfermarkt.
His career so far is that of a developing centre-half building from a solid lower-league base into Premiership football with Kilmarnock.
