Scout report
João Pedro is a 23-year-old full-back at Gwangju FC, rated 41 overall by Field Insider's model. An emerging talent, he has been a fringe squad member this season (14.3% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.1 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Pedro.
On the season, Pedro graded 4 for current form (age-blind), on 1 clean sheet and 2.098 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 5 → 4). Over the 3 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2024/25.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 41. At 23 Pedro is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 10 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2025/26 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Gwangju FC finished 12th of 12 · a relegation-threatened side
2.1 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 14 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (12th of 12) 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 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.23 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 14.3% 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 41 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.1 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
