S. Horemans is a 28-year-old defensive midfielder at Utrecht, rated 49.1 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 214th of 284 on scout potential in the Eredivisie. An experienced operator, he has been a regular starter this season (62.4% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.4 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Horemans.
Judged on this season alone, Horemans graded 24 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 35th of 41 of the 41 defensive midfielders in the Eredivisie, on 0 goals, 1 assist and 3.398 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 46 → 24). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 49, 34th of 41 of the 41 defensive midfielders in the Eredivisie. At 28 Horemans is in his prime years, and a market index of 13.6 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Horemans missed 3 games through injury (inactive) out of roughly 36 this season. The 29 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.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Utrecht finished 6th of 18 · an upper-table side
3.4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 29 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (6th of 18) 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. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 62.4% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Watch points
- Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.
Outlook
With a Rating of 49.1, Horemans carries the 34th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Eredivisie of 41. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
