Scout report

Squad depthAttacking midfielder

D. McNeil is a 26-year-old attacking midfielder at Everton, rated 64.6 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 239th of 376 on scout potential in the Premier League. In his prime years, he has been a fringe squad member this season (34.8% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on McNeil.

Judged on this season alone, McNeil graded 5 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 72nd of 73 of the 73 attacking midfielders in the Premier League, on 0 goals and 1 assist in 22 appearances (0.076 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 30 → 5). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 65, 53rd of 73 of the 73 attacking midfielders in the Premier League. At 26 McNeil is in his prime years, and a market index of 77.5 reflects that trajectory.

0 goals in 22 appearances (0 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 1 assist for 1 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 93.7/100).

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 34.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Output. 0.08 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.

Outlook

With a Rating of 64.6, McNeil carries the 53rd-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Premier League of 73. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.08 goal contributions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
