Scout report

Squad depthCentral defender

B. Humphreys is a 23-year-old central defender at Burnley, rated 76 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 167th of 376 on scout potential in the Premier League. An emerging talent, he has been a rotation option this season (53.1% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.25 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Humphreys.

Judged on this season alone, Humphreys graded 16 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 53rd of 64 of the 64 centre-backs in the Premier League, on 2 clean sheets and 3.251 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 43 → 16). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 76, top 36% of the 64 centre-backs in the Premier League. At 23 Humphreys is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 91.2 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Humphreys missed 5 games through injury (thigh problems, lacking match fitness) 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.

Clean sheets

3.25 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 20 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (19th 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.

Strengths

  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 90.5/100).

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 53.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 76, Humphreys carries the 23rd-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Premier League (top 36%), and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Burnley finished 19th 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 moderate defensive volume (3.25 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 23, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
