Scout report

Project playerCentral defender

C. Burgess is a 30-year-old central defender at Swansea, rated 45.2 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 351st of 493 on scout potential in the Championship. An experienced operator, he has been an ever-present this season (100% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.24 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Burgess.

Judged on this season alone, Burgess graded 39 — a strong campaign that ranks top 22% of the 82 centre-backs in the Championship, on 12 clean sheets and 3.239 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 9 → 39). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 45, 56th of 82 of the 82 centre-backs in the Championship. At 30 Burgess is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 15.1 reflects that trajectory.
