Squad depthCentral defender

H. Souttar is a 28-year-old central defender at Leicester, rated 29.6 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 84th of 213 on scout potential in the League One. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (30.4% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.43 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Souttar.

Judged on this season alone, Souttar graded 11 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 48th of 64 of the 64 centre-backs in the League One, on 2 clean sheets and 2.429 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 1 → 11). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 30, top 38% of the 64 centre-backs in the League One. At 28 Souttar is in his prime years, and a market index of 4 reflects that trajectory.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 30.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 29.6, Souttar carries the 24th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the League One of 64 — though on just 7 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.43 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
