Aston Oxborough

Aston Oxborough of Dunfermline Athletic was born in Great Yarmouth, England on 9 May 1998 (age 28).

Aston Oxborough, born on 9 May 1998 (age 28), is an English goalkeeper with Dunfermline Athletic. An imposing 6ft 5in (1.96m), he wears the number 1 shirt and is valued at around £170,000 by Transfermarkt.

His career has been shaped most clearly by Motherwell. The 2024-25 season gave him his main run at Premiership level, with 25 league appearances, and that spell remains the most substantial part of his senior record. For a goalkeeper, that sort of run matters more than a tidy line on a CV.

Oxborough is now at Dunfermline, where his 2026-27 season has brought 14 appearances across all competitions: five in the Championship, three in the League Cup, three in the Scottish Cup and three in the Premiership play-offs. His career to date is a straightforward one: an English keeper whose senior standing was built at Motherwell and is now being carried on at East End Park.
