Scout report

Squad depthCentral defender

T. Adarabioyo is a 28-year-old central defender at Chelsea, rated 51.8 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 300th of 376 on scout potential in the Premier League. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (27.6% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.51 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Adarabioyo.

Judged on this season alone, Adarabioyo graded 13 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 56th of 64 of the 64 centre-backs in the Premier League, on 2 clean sheets and 3.505 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 20 → 13). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 52, 51st of 64 of the 64 centre-backs in the Premier League. At 28 Adarabioyo is in his prime years, and a market index of 37.3 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Adarabioyo missed 6 games through injury (muscle, calf, injured doubtful) out of roughly 38 this season. The 16 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

3.51 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 16 appearances.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 3.51 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 95.3/100).

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 27.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 51.8, Adarabioyo carries the 51st-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Premier League of 64 — though on just 16 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.51 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
