Scout report
A. Deiola is a 31-year-old central midfielder at Cagliari, rated 38 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 329th of 388 on scout potential in the Serie A. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option this season (59.1% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.51 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Deiola.
Judged on this season alone, Deiola graded 30 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 37th of 68 of the 68 central midfielders in the Serie A, on 0 goals, 2 assists and 3.512 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 26 → 30). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 38, 57th of 68 of the 68 central midfielders in the Serie A. At 31 Deiola is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 13.7 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Deiola missed 11 games through injury (injury, thigh) out of roughly 38 this season. The 20 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
Below his 2021/22 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Cagliari finished 14th of 20 · a lower-table side
3.51 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 20 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (14th of 20) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 3.51 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 59.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 31, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 38, Deiola carries the 57th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Serie A of 68, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Cagliari finished 14th of 20) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.51 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
