Experienced headCentral midfielder

Mohammed Al Burayk is a 33-year-old central midfielder at NEOM, enjoying a standout season — 1 goals and 1 assists in 21 appearances, a Season grade of 18, top 67% of Pro League central midfielders. On long-term scout potential he's rated 14.5, ranking 300th of 317 in the Pro League. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member (34.1% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.88 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Burayk.

Judged on this season alone, Burayk graded 18 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 44th of 66 of the 66 central midfielders in the Pro League, on 1 goal, 1 assist and 3.879 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 0 → 18). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 15, 64th of 66 of the 66 central midfielders in the Pro League. At 33 Burayk is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.5 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

3.88 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 21 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.17 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
  • Defensive volume. 3.88 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 34.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 33, 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 14.5, Burayk carries the 64th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Pro League of 66. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.88 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).
