Scout report

Rising starBall-winning Central defender

Afonso Silva is a 22-year-old central defender at Wisla Plock, rated 34.6 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 3rd of 188 on scout potential in the Ekstraklasa and 755th of 1759 U-23 players tracked. An emerging talent, he has been a rotation option this season (40.7% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 4.05 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Silva.

Judged on this season alone, Silva graded 18 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 24th of 35 of the 35 centre-backs in the Ekstraklasa, on 2 clean sheets and 4.051 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 15 → 18). Across the 3 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 35, top 3% of the 35 centre-backs in the Ekstraklasa. At 22 Silva is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 4.7 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

4.05 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 7 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (13th 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.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 4.05 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 40.7% 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 34.6, Silva carries the 1st-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Ekstraklasa of 35 — though on just 7 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.05 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
