Scout report
Joel da Silva is a 23-year-old defensive midfielder at Nacional, rated 50.2 overall by Field Insider's model. An emerging talent, he has been a fringe squad member this season (13.5% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 5 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Silva.
On the season, Silva graded 5 for current form (age-blind), on 0 goals, 0 assists and 5 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 41 → 5). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2024/25.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 50. At 23 Silva is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 19.2 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2024/25 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Nacional finished 14th of 18 · a lower-table side
5 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 18 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (14th of 18) 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.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 5 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 13.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
Rated 50.2 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 23, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
