Let's take a little trip down memory lane, shall we? Back to the shimmering pinnacle of 2007, when Mikey Moore was but a wee sprog born and then saddled with the burden of being a forward with a peculiar predilection for playing as a left winger. Born in England, likely on a rainy day, now sporting the number 47 jersey for the Rangers, he's blossomed into a 5ft 10in (or 1.8m for those of you beholden to the metric system) package of football ambition, tipping the scales at 11st 11lb (again, 75kg for you metric-dealers).
Now, when it comes to attaching a price tag to a player, we defer to the oracle that is Transfermarkt, a source as reliable as Scottish weather. It's got our young Moore's market value neatly pegged at around £14m . We're not exactly talking 'football royalty' money here, but it's nothing to sniff at either.
Moore's journey through top-tier football so far has been as adventurous as a cup of lukewarm tea. In 2022, he joined Tottenham Hotspur in England's Premier League, with a first season that could generously be described as 'quiet'. Two first team appearances. His second season wasn't much louder, making an almost deafening ten appearances.
Plot twist in 2025, Moore was shipped off from Spurs to Rangers, up in the Scottish Premiership, on loan. This was akin to taking a wee lad from bustling London and plonking him into an episode of Taggart but, as of the current season, it's not gone too shabbily. Nine first team appearances and a precious, perhaps tear-inducing, first goal.
Moore's also dipped his toes into the heady world of cup football; specifically, the League Cup, Champions League Qualifiers and Europa League for Rangers. Experience in this glitzy side of football, no doubt, serves as a treasured reprieve from the weekly mud and blood of the Premiership games. Surely, such exposure will only inflate his transfer market value, assuming he's not forgotten how to kick a ball into a goal, of course.
