C. Fall is a 22-year-old central midfielder at PAU, rated 57.4 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 107th of 313 on scout potential in the Ligue 2 and 803rd of 2870 U-23 players tracked. An emerging talent, he has been a fringe squad member this season (30.4% 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 Fall.

Judged on this season alone, Fall graded 19 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 34th of 50 of the 50 central midfielders in the Ligue 2, on 2 goals, 1 assist and 3.003 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 0 → 19). Across the 3 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

Clean sheets

3 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 22 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.29 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 22 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 30.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 57.4, Fall carries the 14th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Ligue 2 (top 28%). Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3 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.
