Scout report

Experienced headCentral midfielder

C. Coady is a 33-year-old central midfielder at Charlton, rated 17 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 158th of 169 on scout potential in the Championship. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (31.3% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.48 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Coady.

Judged on this season alone, Coady graded 16 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 18th of 35 of the 35 central midfielders in the Championship, on 1 goal, 1 assist and 3.478 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 12 → 16). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 17, 35th of 35 of the 35 central midfielders in the Championship. At 33 Coady is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 4.3 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

3.48 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 17 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (19th of 24) 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 1 goal and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 31.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 33, 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 17, Coady carries the 35th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Championship of 35, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Charlton finished 19th of 24) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.48 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).
