    Finn Russell Bio

    Born into a sporting family on 23 September 1992, Finn Russell started playing rugby at a young age in Stirling. However, he quickly moved to Falkirk to improve his chances of playing regularly.

    In 2012, Finn Russell played for Scotland at the World Rugby U20 Championships. During this time, he was also selected to play for Ayr. He helped the team win the league and cup double in the 2012-13 season before joining Glasgow Warriors and beginning his professional rugby career in the Pro12.

    During his time at Glasgow Warriors, Finn Russell was instrumental to the team’s successes. He arguably played some of his finest rugby in the 2014-15 season, when he almost single-handedly dragged Glasgow Warriors to their first ever Pro12 championship. 

    However, in 2018, he moved to Racing 92 to play in France's Top 14 competition. He made more than 100 appearances for the French outfit before moving back to the UK. Since 2023, he’s played for Bath in the Premiership.

    In 2025, he enjoyed a breakthrough season with Bath as the club won the Premiership Rugby Cup, the European Rugby Challenge Cup and the Premiership Rugby title. 

    Although Finn Russell has been a standout performer in club rugby, some of his finest performances have been saved for the international stage. Ever since 2014, he's been a near-constant fixture for Scotland. He's been capped nearly 100 times by his country and he's featured in three Rugby World Cups. 

    On top of this, Finn Russell has been named in three British and Irish Lions squads (2017, 2021 and 2025). During the tour of South Africa in 2021, he made his first test appearance for the Lions. He came off the bench in the deciding test and kicked 11 points in 11 minutes. In 2025, he was a standout player on the tour and he played a vital part in all three tests as the Lions defeated Australia

    With many years of top-class rugby still ahead of him, we can't wait to see what Finn Russell does next.
