Ben Godfrey, born in York on 15 January 1998 (age 28), is an English central defender now with Rangers. His current market value is around ยฃ4.5m, according to Transfermarkt.
Godfrey came through at York City before moving to Norwich City, where his development was helped by a useful loan spell at Shrewsbury Town. That period gave him senior football away from the more protected academy route, and he returned to Norwich better equipped for the demands of the Championship.
His best league return came at Norwich in 2018-19, when he scored four goals in 31 appearances. That season remains the clearest marker of his rise: regular football, responsibility at the back, and enough threat at set-pieces to be more than just another centre-half passing through.
Godfrey later moved on from Norwich and is now part of the Rangers squad, wearing number 4. In 2026-27, he has made one league appearance. His career to date has been shaped by early senior exposure, a strong Norwich spell, and a move into Scottish football at Ibrox.
