On long-term scout potential he's rated 9.6, ranking 294th of 311 in the Serie A. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option (36.5% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.17 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Ruschel.

Judged on this season alone, Ruschel graded 14 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 51st of 63 of the 63 centre-backs in the Serie A, on 3 clean sheets and 3.171 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 30 → 14). Over the 3 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 10, 59th of 63 of the 63 centre-backs in the Serie A. At 37 Ruschel is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.9 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

3.17 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 21 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (19th of 20) 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.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 36.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 37, 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 9.6, Ruschel carries the 59th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Serie A of 63, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Juventude finished 19th of 20) — 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 (3.17 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.5× and falling).
