Scout report

Squad depthFull-back

Nathan is a 23-year-old full-back at RB Bragantino, rated 63.2 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 68th of 413 on scout potential in the Serie A. An emerging talent, he has been a rotation option this season (41.8% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.93 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Nathan.

Judged on this season alone, Nathan graded 16 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 60th of 70 of the 70 full-backs in the Serie A, on 3 clean sheets and 2.933 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 10 → 16). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 63, top 20% of the 70 full-backs in the Serie A. At 23 Nathan is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 30 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Nathan missed 7 games through injury (thigh, leg, yellow cards) out of roughly 38 this season. The 19 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.

Outlook

With a Rating of 63.2, Nathan carries the 14th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Serie A (top 20%). Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.93 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.
