Squad depthBall-winning Defensive midfielder

C. Olde Keizer is a 23-year-old defensive midfielder at Vitesse, rated 42 overall by Field Insider's model. An emerging talent, he has been a fringe squad member this season (4.3% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 7.3 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Keizer.

On the season, Keizer graded 2 for current form (age-blind), on 0 goals, 0 assists and 7.297 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 2 → 2). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 42. At 23 Keizer is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 12.4 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

7.3 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume across 7 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.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 7.3 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 4.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 42 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (7.3 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
