Tom Lang, born on 12 January 1997 in England, is a robust defender who presently plies his trade as a central defender for Falkirk, sporting the number 4 jersey. With a tall stature of 6ft (1.85m) and weighing in at 12st 8lb (80kg), he brings a formidable presence to the heart of defence. His current market value is around £45k, data accredited to Transfermarkt.
Lang began his professional journey in Scottish football with Dumbarton in League Two, in January 2017. The debut season was a sombre affair as he only managed to make six first team appearances in league matches. In July 2017, Lang was on the move again, swapping Dumbarton for Stranraer. His tenure was brief and unremarkable, with a mere three appearances in League Two.
Lang experienced a change in fortune in January 2018, when he transferred to Clyde. Although the details of the transaction were kept a secret, it was here that he began to make more of an impact, making four first team appearances in league matches.
After a year-long stint at Clyde, he was transferred to Dunfermline Athletic in the Championship in July 2019. A short loan spell saw him back at Clyde in January 2020, before a yet another permanent move to Clyde in October 2020. The 2017 - 2018 season at Clyde remained consistent in terms of game time clocked, with another four first-team appearances in league matches.
July 2021 brought a new chapter in Lang's career, as he transferred to Raith Rovers in the Championship. During the 2022 - 2023 campaign, Lang made a solid contribution with 14 appearances and a goal in his tally. However, the real achievement came in July 2023 when Lang secured a move to Falkirk in the Premiership – the top-tier of Scottish football. Although the 2024 - 2025 season only saw 11 appearances and a solitary goal, Lang has quite resolutely marked his hard-earned place in premier league football. On a bittersweet note, the current 2025 - 2026 season has, as yet, seen him make no first-team appearances.
