Frankie Kent

Frankie Kent of Heart of Midlothian was born in Romford, England on 21 November 1995 (age 30).

Frankie Kent, a footballer by vocation, was welcomed into the world on 21 November 1995, making him a sage 30 years of age. He was born in England to an expectant populace and is best known for his defensive skills, with a penchant for central defender position. He has aligned himself with Hearts, donning a number 2 jersey. With a towering height of 1.88 metres (around 6 feet 2 inches) and carrying a weight of about 76kg (roughly 11 stone and 13 pounds), he has made his significant mark on the pitch.

As of the present time, the market seems to rate him quite favourably. According to Transfermarkt, his current market value weighs in at around €600k, which can be translated into usefully rounded figures of around £510,000.

The young year of 2014 saw Kent making a professional commitment to Colchester United, a team partaking in England's League Two. Despite only making a mere appearance in the season of his acquisition (2013 - 2014), Kent showed promise, making progressively more appearances in ensuing seasons, culminating in 27 first team appearances in the 2017 - 2018 season, where he also demonstrated his ability to find the net, scoring twice.

In the warm summer of July 2019, Kent journeyed from Colchester United to Peterborough United, another English team, situated in League One. Once again, his involvement on the pitch saw a steady increase from 34 first team appearances in his first season (2021 - 2022) to 30 in his second (2022 - 2023), scoring a goal and two goals in respective seasons.

However, July 2023 was a period of change for Kent. He ventured north to Scotland, signing up with Hearts, representatives of the Scottish Premiership, for a fee that unhelpfully remains undisclosed. He made 35 first team appearances in his first season (2023 - 2024), 18 in his second season (2024 - 2025) where he again found the net twice, and has made six so far in the current season of 2025 - 2026.
