Kristers Tobers, born on 13 December 2000 (age 25), is a Latvian central defender now with Aberdeen. At 6ft 3in (1.90m), he is an imposing enough presence, though his career to this point has been built more on steady senior mileage than any great noise around him.
His most substantial spell came at Lechia Gdansk, where he made 65 league appearances across four seasons. That is the period that gives his career its shape: regular football, a clear role, and enough continuity to matter. For a defender still in his early twenties at the time, it was a proper grounding rather than a passing stop.
He later moved on to Grasshoppers, where the 2024-25 league season brought 10 appearances and one goal, his most productive campaign in front of goal. In 2025-26, he has made one league appearance for Aberdeen. His current market value is around £680,000, according to Transfermarkt.
Tobers’ career is still largely anchored by what he did at Lechia Gdansk, with Grasshoppers and Aberdeen forming the next stages of a fairly straightforward professional path.
