Scout report
G. Bijl is a 31-year-old central defender at Antwerp, rated 20.3 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 302nd of 311 on scout potential in the Jupiler Pro League. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (18.1% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.73 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Bijl.
Judged on this season alone, Bijl graded 8 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 47th of 48 of the 48 centre-backs in the Jupiler Pro League, on 2 clean sheets and 3.727 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 11 → 8). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 20, 46th of 48 of the 48 centre-backs in the Jupiler Pro League. At 31 Bijl is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.9 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2022/23 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Antwerp finished 3rd of 6 · a mid-table side
3.73 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 11 appearances.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 3.73 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 18.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 31, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 20.3, Bijl carries the 46th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Jupiler Pro League of 48 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.73 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
