A. Smith is a 24-year-old central defender at Gillingham, rated 32.3 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 68th of 478 in the League Two. An emerging talent, he has been a regular starter this season (75.1% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 4 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Smith.
Judged on this season alone, Smith graded 28 — a strong campaign that ranks top 22% of the 76 centre-backs in the League Two, on 8 clean sheets and 3.995 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 12 → 28). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 32, top 14% of the 76 centre-backs in the League Two. At 24 Smith is in his prime years, and a market index of 9.7 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2022/23 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 36 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (17th of 24) 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 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 32.3, Smith carries the 10th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the League Two (top 14%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Gillingham finished 17th of 24) — 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 (4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.

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 (~10), then tapers with age. At 24, Smith sits on 9.7, at or near its peak. The blue line is Smith's projected Rating — 32.3 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.
