Squad depthCentral midfielder

Óscar Clemente is a 27-year-old central midfielder at Grasshoppers, rated 30.4 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 158th of 221 on scout potential in the Super League. In his prime years, he has been a fringe squad member this season (32.8% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.13 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Clemente.

Judged on this season alone, Clemente graded 13 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 9th of 17 of the 17 central midfielders in the Super League, on 2 goals, 0 assists and 2.134 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 19 → 13). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 30, 12th of 17 of the 17 central midfielders in the Super League. At 27 Clemente is in his prime years, and a market index of 5.9 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

2.13 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 24 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (11th of 12) 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 2 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.15 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 32.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 30.4, Clemente carries the 12th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Super League of 17, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Grasshoppers finished 11th of 12) — 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 moderate defensive volume (2.13 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
