Scout report
João Gamboa is a 29-year-old defensive midfielder at Jeonbuk Motors, rated 25.4 overall by Field Insider's model. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (12.7% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.7 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Gamboa.
On the season, Gamboa graded 3 for current form (age-blind), on 0 goals, 0 assists and 2.696 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 15 → 3). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 25. At 29 Gamboa is in his prime years, and a market index of 3.4 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2020/21 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Jeonbuk Motors finished 1st of 6 · a title-challenging side
2.7 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 13 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st of 6) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 12.7% 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 25.4 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.7 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
