On long-term scout potential he's rated 4.5, ranking 272nd of 278 in the Primera División. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option (47% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 4.4 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Vidal.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 7 → 25). Across the 5 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

Clean sheets

4.4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 19 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 3 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.28 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
  • Defensive volume. 4.4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 47% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 39, 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 4.5, Vidal carries the 54th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Primera División of 55. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.5× and falling).
