Scout report

Squad depthFull-back

N. Mazraoui is a 28-year-old full-back at Manchester United, rated 56.6 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 280th of 376 on scout potential in the Premier League. An experienced operator, he has been a rotation option this season (40.6% 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 Mazraoui.

Judged on this season alone, Mazraoui graded 17 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 54th of 64 of the 64 full-backs in the Premier League, on 2 clean sheets and 3.875 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 54 → 17). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 57, 48th of 64 of the 64 full-backs in the Premier League. At 28 Mazraoui is in his prime years, and a market index of 40.8 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Mazraoui missed 10 games through injury (international duty, injured, injury) out of roughly 38 this season. The 20 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.

Clean sheets

3.88 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 20 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 20) 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.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 3.88 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 99/100).

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 40.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 56.6, Mazraoui carries the 48th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Premier League of 64. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.88 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
