Mark O'Hara, born on 12 December 1995 (age 30), is a Scottish central midfielder now with Kilmarnock. His career has been a steady Scottish football one rather than a spectacularly noisy one, with his early loan spells giving him the first-team grounding midfielders tend to need before anyone starts trusting them with the awkward work.
Those loans helped shape a player more useful than showy: comfortable enough in central areas, capable of carrying responsibility, and with an eye for goal when used in the right role. His best league return came at St Mirren in 2022-23, when he scored 10 goals in 35 appearances – a properly productive season from midfield, not just a statistical quirk.
O'Hara is now back in Kilmarnock colours, where in 2026-27 he has made two league appearances, along with five League Cup appearances and two in the Scottish Cup. Across all competitions for Kilmarnock that season, he has played nine times. His current market value is around £425,000, according to Transfermarkt.
His career to date has been built on regular senior football, practical development through loans, and a peak scoring season at St Mirren that showed what he could offer from midfield. At Kilmarnock, he remains an experienced domestic option in the centre of the pitch.
