Scout report
C. Brittain is a 28-year-old full-back at Middlesbrough, rated 48.7 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 99th of 272 on scout potential in the Championship. An experienced operator, he has been a rotation option this season (47.8% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.64 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Brittain.
Judged on this season alone, Brittain graded 18 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 20th of 37 of the 37 full-backs in the Championship, on 2 clean sheets and 3.636 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 37 → 18). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2025/26.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 49, 17th of 37 of the 37 full-backs in the Championship. At 28 Brittain is in his prime years, and a market index of 13.5 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2025/26 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Middlesbrough finished 3rd of 24 · an upper-table side
3.64 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 11 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 24) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.27 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
- Defensive volume. 3.64 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 47.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
With a Rating of 48.7, Brittain carries the 17th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Championship of 37 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.64 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 (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
