Charlie Telfer Joins the Rovers

Raith Rovers is thrilled to announce that Charlie Telfer has penned a two-year deal to join the club upon the expiry of his contract with Airdrieonians.

A familiar face to Championship supporters, the 30-year-old midfielder is renowned for his passing range, technical ability and knack for chipping in with important goals from the heart of midfield.

After signing his deal, Charlie said:

“I’m absolutely delighted to sign for the club. It’s an ambitious club that I’ve always been impressed by, and it has a fantastic fanbase.

“I had a few offers from other clubs, but once I heard Raith were interested, it was a no brainer and I wanted to get it done as soon as possible. I’m really excited to start working with the manager. The way he spoke about how he wants the team to play and where he sees me fitting in really excited me.

“I’m really looking forward to pre-season starting, meeting my new teammates and beginning what I hope will be a successful season for us. I can’t wait to play my first game at Stark’s Park in front of the fans, and hopefully we can enjoy a great season together.”

Charlie began his career as a highly regarded prospect in the Rangers academy, representing Scotland at various youth levels up to Under-21 level. After making his first-team debut for Rangers, Charlie earned a move to Dundee United, where he quickly established himself as a regular in the side over the next three seasons.

Following his departure from Tannadice in 2017, the midfielder enjoyed spells with Almere City in the Netherlands and Greenock Morton, before joining Falkirk in 2019. Charlie went on to make a significant impact during his three seasons with the Bairns, scoring 15 goals in 87 appearances.

After leaving Falkirk in 2022, Charlie went on to represent Airdrieonians, Ross County and Hamilton Academical before returning to Airdrieonians last season.

Now ready for a fresh challenge in Kirkcaldy, Charlie becomes our fifth addition ahead of what promises to be an exciting campaign.

Welcome to the Rovers, Charlie.
