Scout report

Squad depthCentral defender

A. N'Diaye is a 24-year-old central defender at Parma, rated 65.6 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 182nd of 380 on scout potential in the Serie A. An emerging talent, he has been a fringe squad member this season (22.8% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.69 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on N'Diaye.

Judged on this season alone, N'Diaye graded 14 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 67th of 74 of the 74 centre-backs in the Serie A, on 3 clean sheets and 3.692 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 34 → 14). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 66, 35th of 74 of the 74 centre-backs in the Serie A. At 24 N'Diaye is in his prime years, and a market index of 40.6 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: N'Diaye missed 13 games through injury and 1 suspension (groin) out of roughly 38 this season. The 11 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.

Clean sheets

3.69 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 11 appearances.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 3.69 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 22.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 65.6, N'Diaye carries the 35th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Serie A of 74 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.69 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
