Kristijan Trapanovski, born on 14 August 1999 in Macedonia, is currently darting around pitch ovals at the age of 25. Primarily positioned as a left winger for Dundee United, Trapanovski fulfils the role of a forward, while sporting the number 7 jersey with pride. Standing at 5ft 10in (around 1.8m) with a weight of roughly 10st 7lb (about 67kg), the player exudes a strong presence on the field, bridging the gap between the Scottish soil he currently roams and the North Macedonian turf he represents on the international level.
Despite his youth, Trapanovski already holds a commendable market value of around €500k, which, if we were to dip into the coinage of the realm, amounts to somewhat above £400k, according to Transfermarkt. His term with Dundee United is set to reach its conclusion on 30 June 2026, leaving him with about a year and a couple of months to leave his mark on the team.
Tracing his career path back to its roots, we find Trapanovski setting foot on the field for the first time in his debut season of 2020 - 2021 for Shkupi. He was able to make 13 first team appearances that season. In the following year (2021 - 2022), Trapanovski's maturing skills shone through as he managed to notch his name on the goals tally 4 times in 32 appearances. His track record for the 2022 - 2023 season recorded 5 goals in 27 appearances, and by the succeeding year, he was scoring 6 times in 29 matches.
When 2024 dawned, Trapanovski found himself on Scottish soil, making 26 appearances for Dundee United and netting three goals in his first season 2024 - 2025. His performance did no go unnoticed in the League Cup 2024 - 2025, where he managed to score three goals in six starts for Dundee United. He also had an appearance as a substitute in the Scottish Cup in that year and another substitute appearance for his homeland North Macedonia in the World Cup Qualifiers Europe 2024 - 2026.
