James Scott, born on 30 August 2000 (age 25), is a Scottish striker with St Mirren, where he wears squad number 14. He is an established professional rather than a player with a long record of heavy scoring, and his career has so far been more about trying to find a settled level than forcing his way into wider attention.
His most productive league season came at Hibernian in 2021-22, when he scored four goals in 16 appearances. That remains the clearest marker of his attacking output, modest enough, but not nothing in a career still looking for rhythm.
At St Mirren in 2025-26, Scott has not made a league appearance or scored a league goal. His involvement has come in the cups, with three League Cup appearances and one in the Scottish Cup, leaving him on four appearances in all competitions for the club without a goal.
Scott’s profile is straightforward: a Scottish striker who has had a useful spell at Hibernian and is now on the fringes at St Mirren, with his recent football limited to cup outings.
