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, where he wears squad number 33. He is a straightforward enough profile: a domestic professional, used primarily on the right side of defence, with his current market value put at around £128,000 by Transfermarkt.

His strongest league return came in 2025-26 with St Johnstone, when he scored three times in 25 appearances. For a full-back, that is useful output rather than anything to get carried away about.

In 2026-27, Smith has made two league appearances. His recent record places him as an experienced Scottish Premiership-level squad option at St Johnstone, with his career currently framed around steady work rather than headlines.
