Aidan Connolly

Aidan Connolly of Queen's Park was born in Dundee, Scotland on 15 August 1995 (age 30).

Aidan Connolly, born on 15 August 1995 (age 30), is a Scottish left winger with Queen’s Park, where he wears number 11. Compact at 5ft 5in (1.66m), he has built a senior career on movement, sharp feet and enough end product to stay relevant without ever needing the hard sell.

Early loan football formed part of his development, giving him the sort of first-team grounding that matters more than tidy youth-team promise. His most productive league campaign came later at Raith Rovers in 2022-23, when he scored 10 goals in 33 appearances, a return that underlined his usefulness in the final third.

At Queen’s Park, Connolly remains a regular presence rather than a squad ornament. In 2025-26 he has made 41 appearances in all competitions, scoring five goals, including 35 Championship appearances with four league goals and a further goal in the Scottish Cup.

His current market value is around £191,000, according to Transfermarkt. Connolly’s career has been that of a steady Scottish winger: developed through senior minutes, productive at Raith, and still involved week to week at Queen’s Park.

Aidan Connolly has been a fixture for Queen's Park in the Championship, starting all 35 of his league appearances. Four goals from the left wing points to a supporting attacking role rather than a primary scoring burden, while five yellow cards suggest he has also had to do a fair amount of work without the ball. His availability is the standout number – he has been used as a first-choice player throughout the league campaign.

Connolly's career trajectory is that of an experienced Scottish lower-league winger with repeated Championship-level spells rather than a steady climb up the pyramid. His club path includes Raith Rovers, Falkirk, Dunfermline Athletic, York City and Queen's Park, with his best listed scoring season coming in 2022-2023 when he recorded 10 goals. At 30, the profile is established and functional – a regular contributor whose value is tied more to reliability and squad structure than future resale upside.

The transfer record is unusually consistent: every listed move has been a free transfer. Connolly has moved between Raith Rovers, York City, Dunfermline Athletic, Falkirk and Queen's Park without recorded fees, which suggests a career built on short-to-medium-term fit rather than major market demand. The 2025 move from Raith Rovers to Queen's Park looks like a lateral Championship switch, adding experience and wide attacking depth.
