Josh Landers, the braw Scottish forward, born on the 27th of February 2007, is currently proving his mettle as a striker for Hibernian Football Club. Standing tall at 5 feet 11 inches (1.82m) and weighing a sturdy 11 stone 6 pounds (73kg), Landers, at the tender age of 17, boasts of a physical prowess well ahead of his years. At Hibernian, he adorns the number 53 jersey - a unique number choice that's come to be associated with him.
His career, although in its infancy, shows signs of promise. His inaugural season 2023-2024 at Hibernian saw him make two first-team appearances. This might seem insignificant, but for a then 16-year-old, it reflected the potential the Hibernian management saw in him. The current season 2024-2025 has, however, been a bit less eventful with Landers yet to take to the pitch in a first-team tie.
While the seasons roll on, Edinburgh holds its collective breath to see whether this young dynamo will rise to become a jewel in the crown of Scottish football. With time on his side, Josh Landers is a name worth remembering.
