Scout report

Experienced headCentral defender

D. Batth is a 35-year-old central defender at Derby, rated 12.1 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 487th of 493 on scout potential in the Championship. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (16.5% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.18 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Batth.

Judged on this season alone, Batth graded 8 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 80th of 82 of the 82 centre-backs in the Championship, on 2 clean sheets and 3.183 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 36 → 8). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 12, 82nd of 82 of the 82 centre-backs in the Championship. At 35 Batth is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.8 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Batth missed 4 games through injury (muscle) out of roughly 46 this season. The 10 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.

Clean sheets

3.18 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 10 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (8th of 24) 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.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 16.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 35, 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 12.1, Batth carries the 82nd-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Championship of 82 — though on just 10 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.18 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
