Scout report
L. Sernicola is a 29-year-old full-back at Spezia, rated 35.9 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 294th of 397 on scout potential in the Serie B. An experienced operator, he has been a rotation option this season (41.9% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.14 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Sernicola.
Judged on this season alone, Sernicola graded 11 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 68th of 75 of the 75 full-backs in the Serie B, on 3 clean sheets and 2.137 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 16 → 11). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 36, 60th of 75 of the 75 full-backs in the Serie B. At 29 Sernicola is in his prime years, and a market index of 7.8 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Spezia finished 19th of 20 · a relegation-threatened side
2.14 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 20 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (19th 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. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.19 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 41.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 35.9, Sernicola carries the 60th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Serie B of 75, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Spezia finished 19th of 20) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.14 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
