Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Watts.
Judged on this season alone, Watts graded 19 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 40th of 67 of the 67 defensive midfielders in the Major League Soccer, on 1 goal, 0 assists and 3.784 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 13 → 19). Across the 3 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 34, 34th of 67 of the 67 defensive midfielders in the Major League Soccer. At 26 Watts is in his prime years, and a market index of 17.7 reflects that trajectory.
Watts is operating at his career peak — the 2025/26 level is the level.
3.78 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 22 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (13th of 15) 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 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 34, Watts carries the 34th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Major League Soccer of 67, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (St. Louis City finished 13th of 15) — 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 solid defensive volume (3.78 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~18), then tapers with age. At 26, Watts sits on 17.7, at or near its peak. The blue line is Watts's projected Rating — 34 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
