Robin Pröpper

Robin Pröpper of Rangers was born in Arnhem, Netherlands on 23 September 1993 (age 31)

Let me introduce to you the professional ball kicker, Robin Pröpper, birthed into the world on the 23rd September 1993, making him a wise old age of 31. You'll find him trotting hither and thither across the grass in the Netherlands, putting all his defender training to use, primarily as a central defender for the Rangers. His towering stature of 6ft 3in (1.92m) can be rather intimidating, and his sizeable weight of 13st (83kg) helps to keep him grounded. How else would he manage to not float away in his renowned number 4 jersey?

Now, we can't talk about Pröpper without looking at his marketplace value, estimated at a rather mundane ₤2.6 million. Don't take it from me, the lovely people at Transfermarkt did all the number crunching.

Our dutiful friend started his football escapades in July 2011 when he decided to mingle with De Graafschap in the Eerste Divisie in the Netherlands. His initiation seasons led to a cumulative result of 18 appearances and two noteworthy goals, before deciding to up his game with 24 appearances and two more goals in the following season. The 2014-2015 season saw him on the field 36 times, scoring, you guessed it, two goals. Practically unimaginative. Now, the 2015-2016 season, saw him down to 31 appearances but still scoring two goals. Predictable, but reliable, like a good cup of bovril.

With July 2016 came a transfer to Heracles Almelo, still cutting his teeth in the Eredivisie in the Netherlands. Over a total of five seasons, Pröpper graced the pitch in 97 league matches, chipping in seven goals for his efforts. Following this, he embarked on another adventure at FC Twente, playing in 95 league matches and scoring nine goals, just for the fun of it, I reckon.

However, not one for staying put, our meandering friend transferred to Rangers, here in our Scottish Premiership, for a meagre ₤1.5 million. We’re still in the midst of season 2024-2025, but so far he's managed to don his jersey for five league appearances. And as if that's not enough footie for one man, he's also participated in the League Cup with two starts, the Champions League Qualifiers with a solitary start, and the Europa League with two starts. Busy chap, busy chap indeed!
