Scout report

Squad depthCentral defender

G. Nevett is a 20-year-old central defender at Peterborough, rated 42.6 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 171st of 481 on scout potential in the League One and 549th of 995 U-21 players tracked. A young player, he has been a fringe squad member this season (29.2% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.13 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Nevett.

Judged on this season alone, Nevett graded 10 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 79th of 88 of the 88 centre-backs in the League One, on 3 clean sheets and 3.127 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 6 → 10). Across the 3 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 43, top 27% of the 88 centre-backs in the League One. At 20 Nevett is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 8.1 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

3.13 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 17 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (18th of 24) 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.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 29.2% 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 42.6, Nevett carries the 23rd-highest potential of the centre-backs in the League One (top 27%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Peterborough finished 18th of 24) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.13 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 20 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (98/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
