Scout report
L. Valzania is a 30-year-old defensive midfielder at Pescara, rated 36.3 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 290th of 397 on scout potential in the Serie B. An experienced operator, he has been an ever-present this season (83.1% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.47 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Valzania.
Judged on this season alone, Valzania graded 34 — a strong campaign that ranks top 29% of the 56 defensive midfielders in the Serie B, on 1 goal, 3 assists and 2.469 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 14 → 34). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 36, 45th of 56 of the 56 defensive midfielders in the Serie B. At 30 Valzania is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 11.2 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2020/21 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Pescara finished 20th of 20 · a relegation-threatened side
2.47 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 36 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (20th 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 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 83.1% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Watch points
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 36.3, Valzania carries the 45th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Serie B of 56, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Pescara finished 20th 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 (2.47 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
