Scout report
C. Lenglet is a 31-year-old central defender at Atletico Madrid, rated 36 overall by Field Insider's model. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option this season (40.7% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.17 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Lenglet.
On the season, Lenglet graded 27 for current form (age-blind), on 6 clean sheets and 3.166 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 27 → 27). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2024/25.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 36. At 31 Lenglet is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 22.3 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2024/25 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Atletico Madrid finished 4th of 20 · an upper-table side
3.17 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 19 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th of 20) 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 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 94.5/100).
Watch points
- Game time. Only 40.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 31, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 36 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.17 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
