Scout report
T. Ndombélé is a 29-year-old central midfielder at Nice, rated 37 overall by Field Insider's model. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (12.4% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.29 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Ndombélé.
On the season, Ndombélé graded 6 for current form (age-blind), on 0 goals, 1 assist and 1.29 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 24 → 6). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 37. At 29 Ndombélé is in his prime years, and a market index of 11.9 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Ndombélé missed 11 games through injury (pubalgia, groin, inactive) out of roughly 36 this season. The 8 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.
Below his 2020/21 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Nice finished 16th of 18 · a relegation-threatened side
1.29 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 8 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (16th of 18) 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 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.32 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
- Creativity. 0.32 assists per 90 — a genuine creative outlet.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 12.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 37 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.29 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
