Born in the land of dragons, Wales, on the last day of 1993, Dave Richards is now a 30-year-old goalkeeper plying his trade in Scotland with Dundee United. With a height of 6ft 2in (1.9m) that aids him between the sticks and a weight of 12st 12lb (82 kg) to maintain his solid form, Richards dons the number 25 jersey for the Scottish outfit.
According to the market values reported by Transfermarkt, Richards is currently valued around £64k. The lanky stopper's contract with Dundee United still has about a year and half to run, set to come to an end on the 30th of June, 2026.
Rewinding time to his debut season (2017 - 2018) at Crewe Alexandra in England, Richards was called up for ten first team appearances. A few seasons later, during the 2022 - 2023 season, the Welsh keeper could only make it to the greens seven times.
Fast-forwarding time to the present 2024 - 2025 season, Richards' attendance for Dundee United has been much in shadow with no first team appearances on record. Sources remain quiet on the reason behind his silent patches; only the year to come will tell whether Richards will return to stand under the Dundee United crossbar.
