Scout report
Philippe Coutinho is a 34-year-old attacking midfielder at Vasco DA Gama, enjoying a standout season — 5 goals and 3 assists in 30 appearances, a Season grade of 35, top 19% of Serie A attacking midfielders. On long-term scout potential he's rated 26.5, ranking 312th of 413 in the Serie A. A seasoned veteran, he has been an ever-present (84.2% of available minutes). He brings 0.3 goal contributions per 90 (0.19 goals, 0.11 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Coutinho.
Judged on this season alone, Coutinho graded 35 — a strong campaign that ranks top 20% of the 57 attacking midfielders in the Serie A, on 5 goals and 3 assists in 30 appearances (0.297 involvements per 90).
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 10 → 35). Across the 6 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 27, 48th of 57 of the 57 attacking midfielders in the Serie A. At 34 Coutinho is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 6.3 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Coutinho missed 5 games through injury and 1 suspension (rest, calf problems, yellow cards) out of roughly 38 this season. The 30 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.
A career still climbing — Coutinho is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
Output in context · Vasco DA Gama finished 14th of 20 · a lower-table side
5 goals in 30 appearances (0.17 per game), a meaningful share of the load for a lower-table side. He also laid on 3 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 8 goal contributions (0.27 per appearance).
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 84.2% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Watch points
- Output. 0.3 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
- Defensive numbers. Modest 1.11 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
- Age curve. At 34, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 26.5, Coutinho carries the 48th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Serie A of 57, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Vasco DA Gama finished 14th of 20) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.3 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
