Owen Elding is a Republic of Ireland striker, born on 7 March 2006 (age 20), now with Hibernian, where he wears the number 7 shirt. His current market value is around £425,000, according to Transfermarkt.
His career to this point is shaped above all by Sligo Rovers. Across three seasons there, Elding made 62 league appearances and scored 12 league goals, with his best return coming in 2025, when he scored 12 in 35 league games. That spell gave him the bulk of his senior football and remains the clearest reference point for where he is as a player.
At Hibernian in 2026-27, he has made four league appearances, alongside one League Cup outing in which he scored, and five Conference League qualifier appearances with two goals. That leaves him with 10 appearances and three goals for Hibs across all competitions. He has also represented the Republic of Ireland this season, making one Nations League appearance.
For now, Elding is a young Irish forward whose senior career has been built mainly at Sligo Rovers, with Hibernian the next step and international involvement starting to come into the picture.
