Tochi Chukwuani

Tochi Chukwuani of Rangers was born in Hvidovre, Denmark on 24 March 2003 (age 23).

Tochi Chukwuani is a Danish centre midfielder, born on 24 March 2003 (age 23), who is currently with Rangers and wears squad number 42. His market value is around £4.5m, according to Transfermarkt.

His most productive league season came at Lyngby in 2023–24, when he scored four goals in 31 appearances. That gave him a decent senior platform rather than just academy promise, and it was enough to keep him moving in a career still in its early stages.

In 2025–26, Chukwuani made 16 league appearances for Sturm Graz, scoring once, before moving on to Rangers, where he added 15 league appearances and two goals. He has remained a regular first-team presence, which matters more than any tidy description of him as a developing midfielder.

Chukwuani’s career so far has taken him from Danish football to Austria and then to Rangers, with steady league minutes at each step. He is not yet a finished article, but he is already an established senior player.

Chukwuani left FC Nordsjaelland for Lyngby on a free transfer, joined Sturm Graz for a 180,000 fee, then moved to Rangers for 4.3m in January 2026. That sequence suggested a player whose market standing climbed sharply after his spell in Austria.
