Ryan Naderi

Ryan Naderi of Rangers was born in Dresden, Germany on 10 July 2003 (age 22).

Ryan Naderi, born on 10 July 2003 (age 22), is a German striker who is now with Rangers, wearing squad number 20. At 6ft 4in (1.94m), he is an imposing centre-forward rather than a subtle one, and his current market value is around £4m, according to Transfermarkt.

His career so far is shaped mainly by Hansa Rostock. Across two seasons there, Naderi made 42 league appearances and scored 13 goals, giving him a proper senior platform rather than just a few scattered outings. His strongest return came in 2025–26, when he scored eight times in 18 league matches for Hansa.

That same season also brought the move to Rangers, where he made nine league appearances and scored once. It is still early in that spell, but the contrast is clear enough: Hansa Rostock gave him his first substantial body of work, while Rangers are now the next test.

Ryan Naderi's 2025-26 season split sharply around his mid-season move: he scored eight goals in 18 appearances for Hansa Rostock, then one goal in nine appearances for Rangers. The drop in output after the transfer suggested a striker still adjusting to a different role and a more demanding environment, with his strongest contribution coming before the move.
