Owen Elding, born on 7 March 2006 (age 20), is a Republic of Ireland striker now with Hibernian, where he wears squad number 47. His market value is around £340,000, according to Transfermarkt.
His career to this point is shaped far more by Sligo Rovers than anywhere else. Across three seasons, he made 62 league appearances and scored 12 league goals, with 2025 standing out as his best return: 12 goals in 35 league matches. That is the spell that gives the early part of his career its substance, rather than the usual small print around a young forward.
In 2025-2026, Elding has made 13 league appearances and scored three league goals. He remains a developing striker with a solid senior base behind him, built largely at Sligo before his current spell at Hibernian.
