Nicolas Raskin

Nicolas Raskin of Rangers was born in Liège, Belgium on 23 February 2001 (age 25).

Nicolas Raskin, born on 23 February 2001 (age 25), is a Belgian central defensive midfielder whose senior career is now shaped largely by his time at Rangers. Wearing No.43, he has become a regular first-team presence rather than just another imported midfield project passing through Ibrox.

Across four league seasons with Rangers, Raskin has made 96 league appearances and scored 11 goals. His most productive campaign has been 2025–2026, with six goals in 33 league matches, and his form has been strong and consistent. In all competitions that season, he has made 50 appearances and scored seven times, including outings in domestic cups, Champions League qualifying and the Europa League.

His market value is around £10m, according to Transfermarkt. For all the usual turnover around Rangers, Raskin remains one of the more relevant parts of their current side: a steady midfield presence, increasingly productive, and firmly associated with that spell above anything else in his career.

Nicolas Raskin has been a regular part of Rangers’ Premiership midfield this season, making 33 league appearances with 31 starts. Six league goals from a central defensive midfield role is a notable return, while seven yellow cards underline the amount of defensive contact in his game. Across all listed competitions he has reached 50 appearances and seven goals, which points to a high-usage player rather than a rotation option.

Nicolas Raskin’s career path is relatively direct: Gent, Standard Liege, then Rangers. The available career data does not provide meaningful appearance totals, but the goal trend is upward – from low-scoring seasons earlier in his career to four goals in 2024–25 and six in the current campaign. At 25, he looks to be in the established phase of his career rather than still breaking through.

Nicolas Raskin’s transfer history shows a move through Belgium before Rangers paid Standard Liege around €1.5m in January 2023. With his listed market value now at €12.00m, the deal looks to have appreciated significantly on paper. The sequence – Gent to Standard Liege to Rangers – suggests a player who has moved up in exposure and expectation rather than drifted between clubs.
