Luke Plange, born on 4 November 2002 (age 23), is an English striker with Grasshoppers, where he wears the number 7 shirt. His current market value is around £425,000, according to Transfermarkt.

His most productive league campaign came with Grasshoppers in 2025-26, when he scored 10 goals in 26 appearances. That was the clearest marker of progress in a career still taking shape, rather than one asking to be dressed up as something larger.

In 2026-27, Plange has made two Super League appearances for Grasshoppers and scored once. For now, his career is that of a developing English centre-forward trying to turn a useful scoring season in Switzerland into something more settled.
