Jayden Richardson, born on 4 September 2000 (age 25), is an English right-back whose senior career has settled most clearly at St Mirren. He had early involvement at Nottingham Forest, making two league appearances in 2021-22, but the Paisley spell is the one with real substance on his record.
At St Mirren, Richardson has been used primarily on the right side of defence and wears squad number 2. Across two league seasons, he has made 38 league appearances for the club, a decent body of work for a player still in the developing bracket rather than a name to be dressed up beyond recognition.
In 2026-27, he has made 14 appearances for St Mirren across all competitions, including four in the league, four in the League Cup, four in the Scottish Cup and two in the Premiership play-offs. His current market value is around £298,000, according to Transfermarkt.
Richardson’s career to this point is a straightforward one: an English full-back with early Nottingham Forest minutes, but a professional identity shaped mainly by regular football at St Mirren.
