Kurtis Byrne (born 9 April 1990 in Dublin) is an Irish professional footballer who plays for St Patrick's Athletic. Byrne is the son of former Celtic and Southend United player Paul Byrne.
Byrne was a member of the Hibernian under-19 side that won the league and cup double in the 2008–09 season. He scored the winning goal in both the decisive league match and the Youth Cup Final. Byrne was one of seven players in that side who were given professional contracts by Hibs following their success.
Byrne made his professional debut on 26 August 2009 in the Scottish League Cup against Brechin City, and made his league debut the following Sunday against Celtic. Byrne was loaned to Stirling Albion for a month in February 2010.
Byrne was then loaned to East Fife for the first half of the 2010–11 season. Byrne scored a hat-trick for East Fife in his fourth appearance for the club, a 6–0 win against Dumbarton. After Hibs suffered from a striker shortage due to the sale of Anthony Stokes and an injury to Darryl Duffy, manager John Hughes commented that Byrne was not yet ready to play regularly in the SPL, and needed to "learn his trade" in lower division football.
