On long-term scout potential he's rated 22.5, ranking 249th of 317 in the Pro League. A seasoned veteran, he has been an ever-present (92% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.39 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Barbet.
Judged on this season alone, Barbet graded 25 — a strong campaign that ranks top 28% of the 61 centre-backs in the Pro League, on 4 clean sheets and 3.389 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 29 → 25). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 23, 43rd of 61 of the 61 centre-backs in the Pro League. At 33 Barbet is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 3.9 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2022/23 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Al Riyadh finished 15th of 18 · a lower-table side
3.39 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 32 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (15th 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 2 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 92% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Watch points
- Age curve. At 33, 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 22.5, Barbet carries the 43rd-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Pro League of 61, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Al Riyadh finished 15th of 18) — 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 (3.39 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).
