Judged on this season alone, Bruno graded 61 — a standout campaign that ranks top 2% of the 86 centre-backs in the Serie A, on 15 clean sheets and 2.863 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 26 → 61). Across the 6 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 45, 36th of 86 of the 86 centre-backs in the Serie A. At 30 Bruno is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 17.8 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Bruno missed 4 games through injury and 1 suspension (yellow cards, inactive, rest) out of roughly 38 this season. The 33 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.
A career still climbing — Bruno is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
Output in context · Cruzeiro finished 3rd of 20 · an upper-table side
2.86 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 15 clean sheets across 33 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 20) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 3 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 87.3% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Watch points
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 45, Bruno carries the 36th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Serie A of 86. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.86 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
