Ben Godfrey, born on 15 January 1998 (age 28), is an English central defender currently with Rangers, where he wears the number four shirt. His market value is around £4.5m, according to Transfermarkt.
Godfrey’s early career took him from York City to Norwich City, with the kind of loan spell that tends to matter more than it looks at the time. Time away from Norwich gave him senior football, defensive work, and a bit of edge before he settled into a bigger role at Carrow Road.
His best league season came with Norwich in 2018-2019, when he scored four goals in 31 appearances. That was the campaign that pushed him on from prospect to established first-team defender, rather than another young player waiting for a proper run.
He later moved through the English and European game before landing at Rangers. In 2026-2027, he has made two league appearances. His career has been a steady one: early development at York and Norwich, a useful loan grounding, a strong Norwich season, and a current role as an experienced centre-half at Ibrox.
