Scout report

Squad depthCentral defender

H. Souttar is a 27-year-old central defender at Leicester, rated 42.1 overall by Field Insider's model. In his prime years, he has been a fringe squad member this season (8.6% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.53 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Souttar.

On the season, Souttar graded 1 for current form (age-blind), on 0 clean sheets and 2.528 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 32 → 1). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 42. At 27 Souttar is in his prime years, and a market index of 19.4 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Souttar missed 40 games through injury (achilles tendon, achilles tendon rupture) out of roughly 46 this season. The 2 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.

Clean sheets

2.53 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume across 2 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (23rd 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. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.51 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 8.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 42.1 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.53 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
