Scout report

Squad depthFull-back

T. Vancooten is a 28-year-old full-back at Burton Albion, rated 29.2 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 350th of 481 on scout potential in the League One. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (33.8% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.47 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Vancooten.

Judged on this season alone, Vancooten graded 14 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 65th of 79 of the 79 full-backs in the League One, on 4 clean sheets and 3.471 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 25 → 14). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 29, 56th of 79 of the 79 full-backs in the League One. At 28 Vancooten is in his prime years, and a market index of 3.9 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

3.47 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 20 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (17th of 24) 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 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 33.8% 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 29.2, Vancooten carries the 56th-highest potential of the full-backs in the League One of 79, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Burton Albion finished 17th of 24) — 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 (3.47 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
