Scout report
N. Powell is a 32-year-old central midfielder at Bradford, rated 13.9 overall by Field Insider's model. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (7.5% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.33 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Powell.
On the season, Powell graded 5 for current form (age-blind), on 1 goal, 0 assists and 3.333 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 2 → 5). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 14. At 32 Powell is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.2 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 · Bradford finished 4th of 24 · an upper-table side
3.33 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 15 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th of 24) 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. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.28 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 7.5% 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
Rated 13.9 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.33 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
