Scout report
N. Domínguez is a 28-year-old central midfielder at Nottingham Forest, rated 52.6 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 297th of 376 on scout potential in the Premier League. An experienced operator, he has been a rotation option this season (40.2% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 5.13 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Domínguez.
Judged on this season alone, Domínguez graded 27 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 23rd of 35 of the 35 central midfielders in the Premier League, on 1 goal, 1 assist and 5.13 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 32 → 27). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 53, 29th of 35 of the 35 central midfielders in the Premier League. At 28 Domínguez is in his prime years, and a market index of 37.9 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Domínguez missed 5 games through injury (knee) out of roughly 38 this season. The 27 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 2022/23 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Nottingham Forest finished 16th of 20 · a lower-table side
5.13 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 27 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (16th 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 1 goal and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.15 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
- Defensive volume. 5.13 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
- Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 92.1/100).
Watch points
- Game time. Only 40.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
With a Rating of 52.6, Domínguez carries the 29th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Premier League of 35, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Nottingham Forest finished 16th 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 high defensive volume (5.13 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years). Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.
