Lauren Davidson

Lauren Davidson (born 1 October 2001) is a Scottish footballer who plays as a forward or winger for Sportsklubben Brann Kvinner in the Norwegian League named Toppserien and the Scotland national team.

Club career
Raised in Bishopbriggs, Davidson played with boys at local Rossvale and for the girls' youth teams of Celtic, Rangers and Glasgow City. After a stint with Hibernian, where she won the Scottish Women's Cup in 2018 and the SWPL Cup in 2019, she joined the senior squad of reigning league champions Glasgow City in August 2020.

Following the cancellation of an entire season due to COVID-19 and a switch from a summer to a winter schedule, Davidson and City finished on the losing side to Celtic in both domestic cup finals in 2021–22, while their long run of league titles was ended by Rangers (both rivals greatly increased their budgets for their women's teams and saw improved results on the field). Glasgow City recovered the following year to win the 2022–23 Scottish Women's Premier League on a dramatic last matchday, with Davidson scoring a late goal at Ibrox to deny Celtic by a point - other results could also have allowed Rangers to retain the championship.

Davidson signed a deal with the Norwegian woman team SK Brann in july 2024, a contract of two-and-a-half-year deal with the top team from Bergen, Norway.

International career
Davidson represented Scotland at the under-16, under-17 and under-19 levels. She was added to the full national team in September 2021 and made her international debut that month in a 2–0 win against Hungary, appearing as a late substitute for Claire Emslie.
