An emerging talent, he has been an ever-present this season (84.8% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.4 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Norton-Cuffy.
Judged on this season alone, Norton-Cuffy graded 32 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 35th of 63 of the 63 full-backs in the Serie A, on 6 clean sheets and 2.398 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 8 → 32). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 81, top 13% of the 63 full-backs in the Serie A. At 22 Norton-Cuffy is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 47.6 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Norton-Cuffy missed 8 games through injury and 1 suspension (thigh, injury) out of roughly 38 this season. The 27 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 2022/23 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Genoa finished 16th of 20 · a lower-table side
2.4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 27 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (16th 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 2 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 84.8% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Ceiling. High potential at just 22 — room to grow into a bigger role.
Watch points
- Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.
Outlook
With a Rating of 80.9, Norton-Cuffy carries the 8th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Serie A (top 13%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Genoa finished 16th 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 (2.4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 22, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
