Scout report

Experienced headCentral midfielder

K. Anderson is a 31-year-old central midfielder at Birmingham, rated 26.6 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 438th of 493 on scout potential in the Championship. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (23.7% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.76 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Anderson.

Judged on this season alone, Anderson graded 13 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 62nd of 69 of the 69 attacking midfielders in the Championship, on 2 goals, 0 assists and 2.755 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 27 → 13). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 27, 67th of 69 of the 69 attacking midfielders in the Championship. At 31 Anderson is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 5.5 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Anderson missed 14 games through injury (hamstring, injury) out of roughly 46 this season. The 26 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.

Clean sheets

2.76 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 26 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.18 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 23.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 31, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 26.6, Anderson carries the 67th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Championship of 69. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.76 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
