Scout report
Souza is a 37-year-old central midfielder at Vasco DA Gama, rated 5.8 overall by Field Insider's model. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (15.8% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.67 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Souza.
On the season, Souza graded 4 for current form (age-blind), on 0 goals, 0 assists and 2.667 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 6 → 4). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 6. At 37 Souza is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.8 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 · Vasco DA Gama finished 14th of 20 · a lower-table side
2.67 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume across 3 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (14th of 20) 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.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 15.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 37, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 5.8 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.67 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.5× and falling).
