Squad depthBall-winning Defensive midfielder

A. Campbell is a 28-year-old defensive midfielder at ST Mirren, rated 27.3 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 53rd of 69 on scout potential in the Premiership. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (22.7% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 4.41 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Campbell.

Judged on this season alone, Campbell graded 7 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 5th of 6 of the 6 defensive midfielders in the Premiership, on 0 goals, 0 assists and 4.412 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 5 → 7). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 27, 6th of 6 of the 6 defensive midfielders in the Premiership. At 28 Campbell is in his prime years, and a market index of 3.7 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

4.41 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 14 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (10th of 12) 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. 4.41 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 22.7% 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 27.3, Campbell carries the 6th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Premiership of 6 — though on just 14 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.41 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
