Jack Milne

Jack Milne of Aberdeen was born in Aberdeen, Scotland on 2 October 2003 (age 23).

Jack Milne, born on 2 October 2003 (age 23), is a Scottish central defender whose career has been shaped mainly at Aberdeen. A commanding 6ft 4in (1.92m), he wears the number 22 and has become part of the first-team picture rather than a passing academy name.

His early development included a useful loan spell at Kelty Hearts in 2022-23, where he made seven league appearances. It was a modest step, but the sort of senior football young defenders tend to need before anyone is too keen to judge them properly.

Aberdeen remains the main body of the story. Milne has made 59 league appearances across five seasons for the club, and his time there has included a Scottish Cup win. In 2026-27, he has featured eight times in the league, with five League Cup appearances and three in the Scottish Cup, scoring once in that competition.

His current market value is around £850,000, according to Transfermarkt. At this stage, Milne’s career is still developing, but its shape is clear enough: early senior minutes elsewhere, then a sustained attempt to establish himself properly at Aberdeen.
