Brannan McDermott, a Scots-born stalwart of the beautiful game, entered the world on the 1st of March in the year 2006, making him currently 18 years of age. The Highlands bred lad plies his trade as a defender, with a preference for the central defender role, and is currently on the books of Motherwell FC. Standing at 5ft 10in (1.79m) and tipping the scales at 11st (70kg), McDermott is a commanding presence on the pitch, belying his relatively young years. Those who follow the exploits of Motherwell would be familiar with the figure sporting the number 35 jersey.
As it stands, the burly defender is valued at approximately £43k as cited by Transfermarkt, an online footballing reference source. His contract with Motherwell has only a month left, destined to exhaust itself on the first day of 2025. A doubtless period of frantic negotiation and speculation awaits.
McDermott left his imprint on the League Cup competition of the 2024 - 2025 season, making a solitary appearance for Motherwell - albeit as a substitute. One can only expect this youthful talent to amass more such opportunities in the coming seasons.
