George Stanger, born on 15 August 2000, is a 25-year-old footballer from Scotland. Standing at 1.91m (6ft 3in) and weighing 80kg (12st 8lb), this sturdy central defender currently lends his services to Kilmarnock, wearing the number 14 jersey. According to Transfermarkt, his current market value is estimated at around £106k.
In January 2018, Stanger first embarked on his professional journey by transitioning from Hamilton Academical to Stirling Albion, on loan. In his initial season, he graced the pitch in two league matches. Shortly, in June 2018, he returned to Hamilton Academical. His tenure in the seasons 2019 - 2021 at Hamilton was marked by his noticeable involvement in a handful of matches.
However, the pendulum of his career swung in September 2019 when he transferred on loan to East Kilbride, only to return back to Hamilton by the January of the following year. In the subsequent months, he was once again loaned out, this time to Forfar Athletic. Stanger reprised his dedication by showcasing his talents in several first-team appearances for Hamilton upon his return in June 2020.
The period post-2021 witnessed several transitions in his career. In October 2021, he transferred from Hamilton Academical to the University of Stirling, only to find himself playing for Dumbarton on loan by February 2022. In July 2022, following another round of transfers, Stanger was seen defending for Alloa Athletic, where he confidently made 25 first team appearances and scored three goals in the 2022 - 2023 season.
Ary United became his next destination in July 2023. Stanger's significant involvement resulted in 62 appearances and four goals over the next two seasons. His consistent, reliable performances caught the eye of Kilmarnock, who signed him in July 2025. As the central defender for Kilmarnock in the ongoing season of 2025 - 2026, Stanger has appeared three times, marking his inaugural season by scoring a goal.
Stanger's journey also includes participation in the League Cup 2025 - 2026 for Kilmarnock, during which he started five times.
