From Rangers to Sirius via Anderlecht: Robbie Ure enjoying himself in the Swedish top flight
In 2023, Rangers youngster Robbie Ure joined Anderlecht. The young Scottish striker looked to be a player for the future, but after two seasons in Belgium, Ure departed with just one senior appearance to his name. Like with Rangers, Ure had done well with the second team, scoring 11 goals in around 38 games. Ure had left Rangers for more opportunities to play first team football, and while Anderlecht gave him the chance to do so in the Belgian second tier, Ure wanted to play more.
This led him to Sweden and Upssala based club Sirius. Sweden, like their neighbours Norway, have seen plenty of talent depart Scandanavia in recent years for top European leagues, but very few players from elsewhere in Europe have decided to try their luck there.
The city of Uppsala is famous for its University rather than its football team. Yet Sirius have been a staple in the Allsvenskan since winning promotion in 2016. After finishing seventh in 2017, they have hovered around the relegation zone for much of their decade long stay in the Swedish top flight.
Yet, Ure provided something they have needed: goals. The 22-yea-old had a fantastic debut season for the side, scoring an impressive 16 goals in 35 games. So far this season, he has picked up where he left off with four goals in six games. With six games gone in the Swedish top flight, Sirius remarkably sit top, with five wins and one draw. They have a five point lead over Hammarby and Elfsborg.
Clearly, the season is still young. Malmö usually dominate the league, having won four of the last six league titles. However, last season, Mjällby provided one of the stories of European football by winning the league at a canter. After finishing fifth in 2024, they pushed on to win their first Allsvenskan title under Anders Torstensson.

For Ure, a successful Sirius seasons certainly helps him achieve his goals. The striker is under contract until 2029, giving Siruis the chance to really cash in on the former Rangers man if he continues to fire in the goals. Ure told the Herald that he would love to return to Rangers one day and represent Scotland.
For Anderlecht, it is a shame that they didnāt get to see Ure realise the potential he had shown at Rangers during his time in Belgium. There were moments, but these were not enough to earn him a spot in the first team. Clearly, Ure has made the right decision in leaving both Scotland and then Belgium to play in Sweden. This 2026 Allsvenskan season could be a stepping stone to bigger things for the young forward, who is also eligible to represent Ukraine at international level. If Ure keeps firing in the goals for Sirius, he may have plenty of suitors this coming summer.
