Judged on this season alone, Leite graded 39 — a strong campaign that ranks top 18% of the 52 centre-backs in the Bundesliga, on 5 clean sheets and 3.929 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 51 → 39). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 64, top 37% of the 52 centre-backs in the Bundesliga. At 27 Leite is in his prime years, and a market index of 38.7 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Leite missed 7 games through injury (muscle, injury) out of roughly 34 this season. The 23 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 2021/22 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
