Club career

St Mirren

Broadfoot initially signed for Scottish Premier League side Hibernian as a sixteen-year-old apprentice, but he was released and signed for St Mirren on 1 July 2002. He went on to make 174 appearances for the club and was team captain for the 2006–07 season, replacing teammate Kevin McGowne. Broadfoot was part of the St Mirren side which gained promotion to the Scottish Premier League for the 2006–07 season, and the team that won the 2005 Scottish Challenge Cup Final in November 2005.

Rangers

In March 2007, Broadfoot signed a pre-contract agreement to join Rangers in the summer. Broadfoot officially joined Rangers on 1 July that year. He made his debut against FK Zeta in a UEFA Champions League qualifier, on 31 July 2007 and scored his first Rangers goal in a 7–2 victory against Falkirk in the Scottish Premier League. In the early part of the season, Broadfoot's first team opportunities were limited after suffering a hamstring injury which caused him to miss three games. After Alan Hutton left for Tottenham Hotspur in the January transfer window, Broadfoot replaced him at right-back and was praised by manager Walter Smith. After making an appearance in the Scottish Cup against Hibernian early in 2008, he made only his second League start against Falkirk during a 2–0 win on 9 February and Rangers gave him the Man of the Match award. Following that, he was a regular in the side during the 2007–08 season. Broadfoot played in the 2008 Scottish League…

He made his second B team appearance in a 1–1 draw, also against the Republic of Ireland a year later. He has also won Scotland under-21 international caps. In September 2008, Broadfoot was called up to the Scotland senior squad to replace David Weir. Broadfoot made his debut for the senior side on 10 September 2008 against Iceland, and he scored the opening goal in a 2–1 Scotland win.
