Leon Balogun, that hefty German lad, was born on 28 June 1988, and since then he's hopped around quite a bit. Currently lending his size to Rangers (don't ask which one) and wearing the no. 27 jersey. He's built like a brick wall - a 6-foot-2-inch, 14-stone brick wall no less. Man's built for defence.
The lad ran out for 14 games in 2023 - 2024, 13 of those he even started for Rangers. There was one other match he jogged on in place of someone else. Also, had a spin at the Scottish Cup.
Despite being around Rangers for four seasons, he has yet to make a mark in the current year. Last year he managed to get himself 14 starts, mind.
This nomad of a footballer has had a long line of addresses. The season before he rocked up at Rangers, he was at Queens Park Rangers, where he turned up 16 times and scored once. Fun fact - 'Rangers' must be his favourite word.
Then he was at Rangers again, remember? Made 21 appearances in 2021 - 2022, and 19 in the season before.
Fewer appearances for Wigan Athletic back in 2019 - 2020, only 11 matches in the roster. Why bother, you ask? Good question.
Brighton & Hove Albion fell for his charms too, 8 showings and one goal for him. Before that, he was at Mainz 05 in Germany, making a solid 14 plays.
Oh, the man does love a sequel. After a stint at Mainz 05, Balogun signed up for the second instalment, Mainz 05 II, for a brief runout. Before that, it was Part I and he worked a bit harder, 17 appearances and one goal. Earlier at Mainz 05 he had 21 plays and one goal in his kitty.
Darmstadt 98 saw more of his scoring prowess with four goals from his 21 outings. Then there was Fortuna Dusseldorf, 11 appearances and then 17 the following season.
Bremen II saw ol' Leon score three out of 20 games, and one in 28 on the previous season. Werder Bremen and Hannover 96 are also on the list of his previous conquests. Not many appearances at these two places - three and two respectively. Mind you, he started at Hannover 96, back in 2008 - 2009.
And there you have it, Leon Balogun. A journeyman, in every sense of the word.
