Scout report
B. van den Boomen is a 31-year-old central midfielder at Angers, rated 37.4 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 289th of 337 on scout potential in the Ligue 1. A seasoned veteran, he has been a regular starter this season (69% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.75 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Boomen.
Judged on this season alone, Boomen graded 27 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 26th of 44 of the 44 central midfielders in the Ligue 1, on 0 goals, 1 assist and 2.754 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 5 → 27). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 37, 39th of 44 of the 44 central midfielders in the Ligue 1. At 31 Boomen is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 11.7 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Boomen missed 14 games through injury (back) out of roughly 34 this season. The 15 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 · Angers finished 13th of 18 · a lower-table side
2.75 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 15 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (13th of 18) 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 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 69% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Watch points
- 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 37.4, Boomen carries the 39th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Ligue 1 of 44, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Angers finished 13th of 18) — 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 (2.75 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
