Chris Cadden, born on 19 September 1996, is a footballer from Scotland who has primarily served as a right back for Hibernian. Standing at 6ft (1.83m) tall and weighing 11st 13lb (76kg), he proudly sports the number 12 jersey.
Cadden's football career kicked off in Premiership club Motherwell, where he made his debut in the Scottish league in July 2013. In his time at Motherwell, Cadden gained considerable first team experience, starting in a progressively increasing number of league matches over six years, and netting six goals in total.
Come March 2015, he was loaned out to play in the Lowland League club, Albion Rovers. He left a decent mark, with ten appearances and two goals. However, his stint didn't last, and by June of the same year, he had returned to his post at Motherwell, where he stayed till 2019.
July 2019 brought a major career milestone for Cadden, as he was selected by MLS outfit, Columbus Crew. Unfortunately, details about the fee involved remain undisclosed. While in the United States, he made eight appearances for the club in 2020. In the midst of his American venture, he was loaned to Oxford United in the Championship. However, by January 2020, he was back with Columbus Crew, completing his loan period.
Cadden finally returned to Scottish soil in January 2021, when he transferred to the Premiership's Hibernian. His transfer fee, like his move to Columbus Crew, remains a closely guarded secret. Since suiting up for Hibernian, he has demonstrated resilience and versatility on the field. Between 2020 and the current season (2024-2025), he has managed to pull off 93 first team appearances in total, which included four goals. He also participated in the 2024-2025 League Cup and the 2023-2024 Scottish Cup, making impressive performances both as a starter and a substitute.
