Scout report

Project playerFull-back

B. Pavard is a 30-year-old full-back at Marseille, rated 44.8 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 262nd of 337 on scout potential in the Ligue 1. An experienced operator, he has been a regular starter this season (67.8% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Pavard.

Judged on this season alone, Pavard graded 31 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 41st of 63 of the 63 full-backs in the Ligue 1, on 6 clean sheets and 2.997 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 31 → 31). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 45, 49th of 63 of the 63 full-backs in the Ligue 1. At 30 Pavard is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 15.1 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

3 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 27 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th of 18) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 67.8% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 44.8, Pavard carries the 49th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Ligue 1 of 63. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
