Brooklyn Kabongolo

Brooklyn Kabongolo of Livingston was born on 16 October 2002 (age 23).

Brooklyn Kabongolo, born on 16 October 2002 (age 23), is a French central defender whose senior career has been shaped mainly at Livingston. At a commanding 6ft 5in (1.95m), he is built for the middle of a back line rather than the decorative parts of the game.

Livingston has provided the main body of his work: 17 league appearances and two league goals across two seasons. That is the spell which gives his career its shape, rather than the smaller entries around it.

His most productive league season came at Arbroath in 2025–26, when he scored twice in 11 appearances. In 2026–27, he has made one Championship appearance and three League Cup outings for Livingston. His market value is around £21,000, according to Transfermarkt.

Kabongolo’s career to date is Livingston-heavy, with Arbroath providing his clearest scoring return from defence. The overall picture is straightforward: a tall French centre-back with a modest senior record in Scottish football.

Kabongolo's transfer trail has been built around low-cost moves: Southend United to Oxford City, Oxford City to Aveley and Aveley to Livingston were all free transfers. Livingston then loaned him to Arbroath in October 2025 before his January 2026 return, so the pattern has been opportunity-led rather than fee-led.
