James Penrice, born on 22 December 1998 (age 27), is a Scottish left-back now with Rangers. His market value is around £2m, according to Transfermarkt.
His early development was helped by loan football, the sort of route that gives a young full-back proper defensive work rather than tidy theory. Those spells fed into a steady senior career, with Livingston becoming an important staging post.
His most productive league season came at Livingston in 2022-23, when he scored three goals in 29 appearances. For a left-back, that is useful output without needing to pretend it was anything more dramatic.
Penrice later moved on to Rangers. In 2026-27, he has made seven league appearances, two League Cup appearances with one goal, and two Conference League qualifying appearances, giving him 11 appearances and one goal across all competitions for the club.
He was linked with a move to Celtic in June 2025 and again in July 2026. His career so far has been built steadily: loan experience, a solid spell at Livingston, and then a step into a more scrutinised role at Rangers.
