Brian Grant (born 19 June 1964 in Bannockburn) is a Scottish former footballer who played as a midfielder. He is currently senior academy manager at Scottish Premiership club Dundee United. He spent twelve years as a player with Aberdeen, making over 250 appearances and winning all three major trophies in Scottish football. He also played for Stirling Albion, Hibernian and Dundee.
Career
Grant began his career in the early 1980s with Stirling Albion before joining Alex Ferguson's Aberdeen in 1984, going on to win the Scottish Premier Division in his first season at Pittodrie. Winning the Scottish Cup the following season, and again in 1990, Grant completed the set of domestic trophies in his final full season with The Dons, picking up the Scottish League Cup in 1995. In August 1996, Aberdeen played Everton in a testimonial for Grant, with the 9,000-plus crowd witnessing a 3-1 win for the Merseyside team.[1]
Midway through the 1996-97 season, Grant joined Hibernian, spending little over a year at Easter Road before a March 1998 move to Dundee. Towards the end of the 1998-99 season, returned to first club Stirling on loan, scoring in what turned out to be his final match at senior level. Grant moved on to Bellshill Athletic at the end of the season and chose not to remain in football after retiring.
After retiring as a player, Grant managed a McDonald's franchise in Forfar.[2] He also remained involved in football, coaching Dundee United youth teams.[3]
