Liam Smith

Liam Smith of St Johnstone was born in Dalgety Bay, Scotland on 10 April 1996 (age 30).

Liam Smith, born on 10 April 1996 (age 30), is a Scottish right-back with St Johnstone. He wears squad number 33 and has a current market value of around £128,000, according to Transfermarkt.

Smith’s profile is that of an established domestic professional rather than a name requiring much embroidery. His best league return came with St Johnstone in 2025-26, when he scored three goals in 25 appearances – useful output from full-back, and not something to dismiss in a side where end product from deeper areas matters.

He also featured in the League Cup for St Johnstone in 2025-26 and scored in the Challenge Cup. The broad shape of his career is plain enough: a Scottish right-back operating at Premiership level with St Johnstone, experienced, functional, and judged more by reliability than headlines.
