Lutsharel Geertruida, born on 18 July 2000 (age 25), is a Netherlands international defender now with RB Leipzig. Primarily a central defender, he wears squad number 2 and carries a current market value of around £27m, according to Transfermarkt.
His career has been shaped above all by Feyenoord. Across seven seasons there, Geertruida made 144 league appearances and scored 19 league goals, a substantial body of work rather than a quick stepping stone. His best scoring season came in 2023-24, when he scored eight times in 34 league matches.
He is now at RB Leipzig, where the move is a clear step into a stronger weekly environment. The broad outline is simple enough: developed and established at Feyenoord, productive by defensive standards, and now testing that foundation in Germany.
