Alan Frizzell (born 14 April 1995 in Greenock) is a Scottish footballer playing with WoSFL Premiership side Kilbirnie Ladeside.

He started his career with local side Greenock Morton, before turning Junior with Port Glasgow. He then had spells with Dumbarton, Largs Thistle, Clydebank, Neilston Juniors, Greenock Juniors, and Broomhill.

Career

Frizzell made his senior debut for Morton at the age of 17, as a substitute against Raith Rovers on 5 May 2012.[1] This was an immediate step-up from the U17 side, as he had never played for the club at U19 level. He had scored in the Renfrewshire Cup against Gourock Thistle in the previous midweek match.[2]

Already with a career outside of football, Frizzell chose not to go full-time with Morton and he instead joined local Junior club Port Glasgow.[3] He spent a season at the Port, before returning to senior football when Ian Murray signed him for Scottish Championship side Dumbarton.

Frizzell left Dumbarton in 2014 to sign for Largs Thistle; leaving the club two years later[4] to sign for Neilston Juniors.[5]

After two seasons at Brig O'Lea, Frizzell joined his home town club Greenock Juniors.[6]

Frizzell moved to Kilbirnie Ladeside in June 2020[7] but was released after the club decided to take a season out due to the current COVID-19 pandemic and signed for Benburb F.C. After only one match, Benburb also chose to take a season out[8] and he joined Troon.

Personal life

Frizzell is the older brother of Airdrieonians winger Adam Frizzell.
