Scout report
O. Hutchinson is a 22-year-old central midfielder at Nottingham Forest, rated 81 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 104th of 376 on scout potential in the Premier League and 119th of 2874 U-23 players tracked. An emerging talent, he has been a rotation option this season (49.6% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.75 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Hutchinson.
Judged on this season alone, Hutchinson graded 29 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 21st of 35 of the 35 central midfielders in the Premier League, on 1 goal, 5 assists and 1.752 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 23 → 29). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 81, top 38% of the 35 central midfielders in the Premier League. At 22 Hutchinson is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 92.3 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2023/24 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
1.75 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 31 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 5 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.32 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
- Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 92.1/100).
- Ceiling. High potential at just 22 — room to grow into a bigger role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 49.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Defensive numbers. Modest 1.75 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
Outlook
With a Rating of 81, Hutchinson carries the 13th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Premier League (top 38%), 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 light defensive volume (1.75 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 22, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
