Scout report
M. Valoti is a 32-year-old central midfielder at Spezia, enjoying a standout season — 4 goals and 3 assists in 16 appearances, a Season grade of 27, top 35% of Serie B central midfielders. On long-term scout potential he's rated 21.5, ranking 358th of 397 in the Serie B. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member (29.1% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.53 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Valoti.
Judged on this season alone, Valoti graded 27 — a solid campaign that ranks top 36% of the 79 central midfielders in the Serie B, on 4 goals, 3 assists and 3.533 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 10 → 27). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 22, 72nd of 79 of the 79 central midfielders in the Serie B. At 32 Valoti is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 5.7 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2020/21 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
3.53 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 16 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 4 goals and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.65 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
- Defensive volume. 3.53 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 29.1% 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 21.5, Valoti carries the 72nd-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Serie B of 79, 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 solid defensive volume (3.53 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
