Scout report

Experienced headCentral defender

C. Lenglet is a 31-year-old central defender at Atletico Madrid, rated 37.2 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 319th of 389 on scout potential in the La Liga. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option this season (45.6% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.16 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Lenglet.

Judged on this season alone, Lenglet graded 30 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 40th of 75 of the 75 centre-backs in the La Liga, on 6 clean sheets and 3.164 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 62 → 30). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 37, 58th of 75 of the 75 centre-backs in the La Liga. At 31 Lenglet is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 24.8 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Lenglet missed 3 games through injury and 1 suspension (knee) out of roughly 38 this season. The 19 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.

Clean sheets

3.16 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 45.6% 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

With a Rating of 37.2, Lenglet carries the 58th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the La Liga of 75. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.16 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
