An experienced operator, he has been a regular starter this season (74.1% of available minutes). He brings 0.39 goal contributions per 90 (0.11 goals, 0.28 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Barella.
Judged on this season alone, Barella graded 36 — an excellent campaign that ranks top 8% of the 68 central midfielders in the Serie A, on 3 goals and 8 assists in 34 appearances (0.391 involvements per 90).
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 46 → 36). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 57, 43rd of 68 of the 68 central midfielders in the Serie A. At 29 Barella is in his prime years, and a market index of 20.3 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Barella missed 3 games through injury (muscle, yellow cards) out of roughly 38 this season. The 34 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 2020/21 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
