Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Vianen.

Judged on this season alone, Vianen graded 25 — a solid campaign that ranks top 35% of the 26 defensive midfielders in the Eerste Divisie, on 1 goal, 0 assists and 5.235 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 49 → 25). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 51, 13th of 26 of the 26 defensive midfielders in the Eerste Divisie. At 23 Vianen is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 14.9 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Vianen missed 17 games through injury (jumpers knee) out of roughly 38 this season. The 12 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

5.24 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 12 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 5.24 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 47.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 50.6, Vianen carries the 13th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Eerste Divisie of 26 — though on just 12 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5.24 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 23, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
