Kevin Smith (born 20 March 1987 in Edinburgh) is a Scottish professional footballer who currently plays for Dundee United.
Smith began his career with Leeds United, but was allowed to leave and signed for Sunderland in January 2006.[1] He had loan spells with Wrexham[2] and Dundee[3] but could not break into Sunderland's first team and was released in June 2007 after eighteen months at the club.[4] After trials with Lincoln City and Brentford, Smith joined Aldershot on a free transfer on November 22, 2007, signing a six-month contract. After failing to make a first-team appearance, Smith was released shortly after joining and began training with Dundee United in April 2008, appearing as an unused substitute in the final two matches of the season[5][6] and subsequently signing a one-year contract.[7]
