Scout report

J. Córdoba is a 25-year-old central defender at Norwich, rated 65.9 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 108th of 493 on scout potential in the Championship. In his prime years, he has been a regular starter this season (71.6% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.51 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Córdoba.

Judged on this season alone, Córdoba graded 28 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 41st of 82 of the 82 centre-backs in the Championship, on 5 clean sheets and 3.512 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 14 → 28).

On long-term talent our Rating reads 66, top 18% of the 82 centre-backs in the Championship. At 25 Córdoba is in his prime years, and a market index of 30.4 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Córdoba missed 11 games through injury (injury, muscle) out of roughly 46 this season. The 28 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.
