On long-term scout potential he's rated 29.5, ranking 312th of 337 in the Ligue 1. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option (40.2% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.32 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Marquinhos.
Judged on this season alone, Marquinhos graded 32 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 28th of 54 of the 54 centre-backs in the Ligue 1, on 6 clean sheets and 2.316 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 20 → 32). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 30, 48th of 54 of the 54 centre-backs in the Ligue 1. At 32 Marquinhos is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 11.5 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Marquinhos missed 5 games through injury (muscle, thigh, inactive) out of roughly 34 this season. The 14 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.
Below his 2020/21 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Paris Saint Germain finished 1st of 18 · a title-challenging side
2.32 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 14 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st of 18) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume.
Strengths
- Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 90/100).
Watch points
- Game time. Only 40.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 32, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 29.5, Marquinhos carries the 48th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Ligue 1 of 54 — though on just 14 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.32 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
