Barney Stewart, born on the 7th of April in 2004, is an English-born football forward who is known for his primary position as a striker for Falkirk. He towers over others at 6ft 3in (1.91m) and has a striker's build, weighing 12st 3lb (78kg). On the pitch, he can be seen wearing the number 16 jersey.
Stewart has made a significant mark in the market, with his current value hovering around £430k, according to Transfermarkt.
In January of 2025, the then lesser-known Stewart made a big leap from Heriot-Watt University in the East of Scotland League in Scotland to Falkirk in the Premiership for an undisclosed fee. The switch, perhaps daunting to some, seemed to motivate the young striker. In his debut season at Falkirk (2024 - 2025), Stewart made 16 first team appearances and managed to notch two goals in league matches.
The 2025 - 2026 season saw a twist in Stewart's career as he was loaned to Dunfermline Athletic in the Championship from Falkirk in September 2025. The change didn't unnerve the young player, and he went on to make 11 first team appearances, and netted an impressive five goals in league matches for Dunfermline Athletic.
The loan agreement completed in January 2026, leading to Stewart’s return to Falkirk. Upon his return, Stewart continued his form by making 14 first team appearances and adding eight goals to his tally in the Premiership in Scotland during the current season 2025 - 2026.
Stewart’s performance wasn’t confined to the league matches, showing his prowess in the prestigious Scottish Cup 2025 - 2026, where he made 4 appearances (three starts and one substitute appearance) for Falkirk and scored two crucial goals.
