Jayden Richardson

Jayden Richardson of St Mirren was born in Nottingham, England on 4 September 2000 (age 25).

Jayden Richardson, born on 4 September 2000 (age 25), is an English right-back with St Mirren. His senior league involvement at Nottingham Forest was brief, with two league appearances in 2021-22, before his career found a much clearer shape in Paisley.

St Mirren is where Richardson has become a regular rather than a name passing through. Wearing the number 2 shirt, he has made 34 league appearances for the club in 2025-26, without scoring in the league, and remains part of the first-team picture. Across all competitions for St Mirren, he has made 48 appearances and scored three goals, all of them coming in the League Cup, alongside four Scottish Cup appearances and two Premiership play-off outings.

His current market value is around £298,000, according to Transfermarkt. At this stage, Richardson’s career is a straightforward one: a limited league role at Nottingham Forest, followed by a far more meaningful spell as a regular right-back at St Mirren.

Richardson's recent path has been unsettled, taking in Aberdeen, loan spells at Stockport County and Colchester United, Boreham Wood and then St Mirren. The move to St Mirren was a clear return to regular top-flight football after a spell outside the Scottish Premiership, and his 2025-26 appearance total suggests he re-established himself quickly.

The transfer record shows low-cost movement rather than fee-driven progression: loans to Stockport County and Colchester United, a return to Aberdeen, then free transfers to Boreham Wood and St Mirren. St Mirren signed him without a fee in July 2025, and the subsequent appearance volume made that look like efficient recruitment.
