Dylan Lobban

Dylan Lobban of Dunfermline Athletic was born on 26 August 2005 (age 21).

Dylan Lobban, born on 26 August 2005 (age 21), is a Scottish attacking midfielder with Dunfermline Athletic. He wears squad number 24 and is primarily used through the middle, where his work is still at the stage of being measured in involvement rather than settled reputation.

His career to this point has been shaped most clearly by Aberdeen. That remains the main reference point in his senior record, with 14 league appearances across one season. For a young player, it was a useful grounding rather than a grand statement, and it still carries more weight than the rest of his career so far.

In 2026-27 he has been with Dunfermline, making 10 Championship appearances and scoring once. He has also played three times in the League Cup and once in the Scottish Cup, taking him to 14 appearances and one goal in all competitions for the club.

Lobban’s career is still at an early professional stage: an Aberdeen background, a current role at Dunfermline, and a modest but active senior record as he looks to build from there.
