Scout report
F. Centonze is a 30-year-old full-back at Nantes, rated 36.6 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 290th of 337 on scout potential in the Ligue 1. An experienced operator, he has been a rotation option this season (38.6% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 6.59 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Centonze.
Judged on this season alone, Centonze graded 30 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 44th of 63 of the 63 full-backs in the Ligue 1, on 2 clean sheets and 6.588 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 5 → 30). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 37, 53rd of 63 of the 63 full-backs in the Ligue 1. At 30 Centonze is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 14.4 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Centonze missed 11 games through injury (knee, injury, injured doubtful) out of roughly 33 this season. The 15 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 2020/21 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Nantes finished 17th of 18 · a relegation-threatened side
6.59 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 15 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (17th of 18) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 3 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.35 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
- Defensive volume. 6.59 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 38.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 36.6, Centonze carries the 53rd-highest potential of the full-backs in the Ligue 1 of 63 — though on just 15 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (6.59 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
