A technically gifted, talented but level-headed midfield player, Lennon Miller could be destined for big things in the game.

Son of former Scotland international striker Lee and grandson of former Steelmen director Iain, Lennon has been courted by most of the biggest clubs in the UK, but has stayed loyal to his local side, signing professional terms in the summer of 2022.

He had already shot to prominence after scoring an incredible half-way line strike against England for Scotland at youth level, but did so again when he became Motherwell’s youngest ever player, making his debut in the League Cup against Inverness Caledonian Thistle aged just 16 years and 6 days in August 2022.

He got his first start in the last game of the 2022/23 season against Dundee United, which sparked run in the first-team, into the following campaign. An opening day goal against Elgin City, before a second against East Fife in the Viaplay Cup, Miller was flourishing before a clash of knees against Aberdeen in November 2023 led to the midfielder suffering a broken patella and a three month stint on the sidelines. He signed a contract extension shortly after however, keeping him at the club until May 2026.

Having recovered in enough time to scoop the club’s Young Player of the Year award, and also nominated for the SFWA Young Player of the Year award, Miller went into the 24/25 season full of confidence. Adding goals and assists to his game, he would make history by becoming the youngest ever Motherwell captain at 18-years-old when he led the side out at the national stadium against Rangers in the semi-final of the Premier Sports Cup.

He would go on to captain the side on 10 occasions before fracturing his ankle in December 2024, ruling him out for two months.
