B. Manuel is a 29-year-old central midfielder at Maccabi Haifa, rated 22 overall by Field Insider's model. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (13% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.13 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Manuel.
On the season, Manuel graded 8 for current form (age-blind), on 1 goal, 2 assists and 2.133 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 2 → 8). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 22. At 29 Manuel is in his prime years, and a market index of 6.1 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Manuel missed 4 games through injury (international duty) out of roughly 36 this season. The 10 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
Below his 2022/23 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
2.13 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 10 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (5th of 6) 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 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Rated 22 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.13 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).

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 (~11), then tapers with age. At 29, Manuel sits on 6.1, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Manuel's projected Rating — 22 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.
