Established in 1886, Motherwell are a historic backbone of Scottish football, hosting their home fixtures within the seasoned, tired walls of Fir Park Stadium. This venue, despite its years, retains a certain charm testifying to the rich heritage of football in the heartlands of Scotland.

According to Transfermarkt, the current market value of the Motherwell first team squad is approximately £8m. This is accumulated by 47 players, offering a significant depth and range to the team's staffing situation.

At an average age of 23, the team is notably young, suggesting a strategic club ethos rooted in nurturing up-and-coming talent, potentially another testament to their relative longevity and embedded position within the Scottish football microcosm.

During the current season, Motherwell have participated in two main sporting events. In the Premiership, the squad seems to be hanging on to the middle ground, having secured themselves the 6th position. As well, they have managed an admirable showing in the League Cup, battling their way right up to the Quarter-Finals stage.
