Islam Gaber is a 30-year-old defensive midfielder at El Mokawloon, rated 16.8 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 289th of 383 on scout potential in the Premier League. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (28.6% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.33 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Gaber.

Judged on this season alone, Gaber graded 11 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 20th of 30 of the 30 defensive midfielders in the Premier League, on 0 goals, 2 assists and 2.329 defensive actions per 90.

We hold a single season for Gaber, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 17, 22nd of 30 of the 30 defensive midfielders in the Premier League. At 30 Gaber is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.2 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

2.33 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 15 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (17th of 21) 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 0 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.21 goal involvements per 90, useful for a defensive midfielder.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 28.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 16.8, Gaber carries the 22nd-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Premier League of 30 — though on just 15 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.33 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
