Experienced headCentral defender

L. Paqarada is a 31-year-old central defender at 1. FC Köln, rated 22.9 overall by Field Insider's model. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (0.9% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Paqarada.

On the season, Paqarada graded 0 for current form (age-blind), on 0 clean sheets and 0 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 44 → 0). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 23. At 31 Paqarada is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 6.2 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Paqarada missed 29 games through injury (knee) out of roughly 34 this season. The 3 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

0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume across 3 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.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 0.9% 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

Rated 22.9 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
