Babacar Fati

Babacar Fati of Livingston was born on 1 February 2000 (age 26).

Babacar Fati, born on 1 February 2000 (age 26), is a Portuguese left-back now with Livingston, where he wears the number three shirt.

His career to this point is shaped mainly by his spell at SJK. Across four seasons with the Finnish club, he made 65 league appearances and scored four league goals, with his best attacking return coming in 2024, when he scored three times in 25 league matches.

Fati has since moved on to Livingston. In 2025-26, he has made 12 league appearances without scoring, a steady enough introduction rather than anything demanding bold claims. His current market value is around £298,000, according to Transfermarkt.

He remains a full-back whose senior career is still most clearly associated with SJK, with Livingston now the next stage rather than the main body of the story.

Fati’s listed career path runs from Sporting CP to SJK and then Livingston, with the move to Scotland coming at age 26. The supplied career data is limited, but the trajectory points to a player who developed outside the Scottish system, built a spell in Finland, and has now stepped into a Premiership squad role at Livingston.

The transfer record shows a free transfer from Sporting CP to SJK in August 2022, followed by an undisclosed-fee move from SJK to Livingston in January 2026. That pattern suggests he rebuilt value after leaving Sporting CP and earned a move into a more visible league, though the current Livingston usage still indicates squad integration rather than an immediate senior role upgrade.
