Domestic-league totals per season. RTG = Field Insider Rating (potential / ceiling); Season = age-blind form that year.
C. Riad is a 23-year-old full-back at Crystal Palace, rated 74.9 overall by Field Insider's model. An emerging talent, he has been a fringe squad member this season (25.6% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.44 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Riad.
On the season, Riad graded 13 for current form (age-blind), on 2 clean sheets and 2.437 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 2 → 13). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 75. At 23 Riad is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 149.8 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Riad missed 14 games through injury (knee, ruptured cruciate ligament) out of roughly 38 this season. The 9 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.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
2.44 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 9 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (15th 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. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Rated 74.9 overall — elite — among the best in the position. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.44 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 23, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.

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 (~150), then tapers with age. At 23, Riad sits on 149.8, at or near its peak. The blue line is Riad's projected Rating — 74.9 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.
