Lucas Freitas is a 25-year-old full-back at Vasco DA Gama, rated 60.1 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 106th of 413 on scout potential in the Serie A. In his prime years, he has been a rotation option this season (51.4% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.15 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Freitas.

Judged on this season alone, Freitas graded 17 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 57th of 70 of the 70 full-backs in the Serie A, on 3 clean sheets and 3.147 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 10 → 17). Across the 4 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 60, top 38% of the 70 full-backs in the Serie A. At 25 Freitas is in his prime years, and a market index of 28.6 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Freitas missed 4 games through injury (heel, flu, yellow cards) out of roughly 38 this season. The 21 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

3.15 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 21 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. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 51.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 60.1, Freitas carries the 26th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Serie A (top 38%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Vasco DA Gama finished 14th 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 (3.15 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.
