Scout report

Squad depthDefensive midfielder

M. Kana is a 23-year-old defensive midfielder at Anderlecht, rated 53 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 127th of 311 on scout potential in the Jupiler Pro League. An emerging talent, he has been a rotation option this season (56.8% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.56 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Kana.

Judged on this season alone, Kana graded 13 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 53rd of 58 of the 58 defensive midfielders in the Jupiler Pro League, on 0 goals, 0 assists and 2.555 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 6 → 13). Across the 6 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 53, 27th of 58 of the 58 defensive midfielders in the Jupiler Pro League. At 23 Kana is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 16.8 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

2.56 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 26 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (4th of 6) 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.

  • Game time. Only 56.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 53, Kana carries the 27th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Jupiler Pro League of 58, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Anderlecht finished 4th of 6) — 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 (2.56 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 23, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
