Scout report

Squad depthBall-winning Central defender

Eduardo Santos is a 28-year-old central defender at RB Bragantino, rated 39.5 overall by Field Insider's model. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (15.4% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 5.68 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Santos.

On the season, Santos graded 11 for current form (age-blind), on 1 clean sheet and 5.676 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 17 → 11). Over the 3 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 40. At 28 Santos is in his prime years, and a market index of 11.3 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Santos missed 14 games through injury (ankle, ankle sprain) out of roughly 38 this season. The 8 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

5.68 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 8 appearances.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 5.68 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 15.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 39.5 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5.68 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
