Connor Young, Edinburgh City`s free scoring centre forward, signed for Dunfermline on 24th January 2025, for an undisclosed fee on a 2 and a half year deal. He made his debut the following day as a sub v Airdrieonians.
Acclaimed as a clinical finisher on either foot, Dunfermline fans will recall Connor as the Edinburgh side`s centre forward they faced in the Third Round of this season`s Scottish Gas Scottish Cup. The 20 year old centre forward converted a penalty kick in the third minute of time added on to make it 2-1 and create an uneasy end to a match the Pars had dominated.
A boyhood Hibee, Connor was with Hearts and Leith Athletic before he joined the Hibs Academy at the age of 14 and turned full time at the age of 16 on leaving Leith Academy. Under Gareth Evans charge, he was part of a very successful U18 side at Hibernian, going out on loan at the age of 16 to Civil Service Strollers. As a near ever present he scored 25 goals for Hibs U18s in season 2021-2022 attracting the interests of Rangers. After an agreed five figure fee, he joined David McCallum`s Rangers B side for the 2022-2023 season and made 28 appearances for them in the Lowland League and SPFL Trust Trophy. A team mate in the early part of his time at Rangers was Kane Ritchie-Hosler before his loan move to Dunfermline at the end of September.
Rangers gave him UEFA Youth League experience against Napoli, Liverpool and Ajax. In February 2023 Connor went out on loan to East Fife and in September 2023 signed for Clyde. Despite scoring four goals in 15 starts and ten appearances off the bench no contract was on the table at the end of that season but he was snapped up by Edinburgh City.
Michael McIndoe started Connor in all of the Citizens` 28 matches this season and he played every minute of every match bar two (when subbed after 81 and 87 minutes). Most importantly the young striker accumulated an impressive 19 goals in those appearances making him League Two`s top goalscorer. His six goals in November 2024 including a hat-trick away at Peterhead earned him the SPFL Player of the Month Award.
