Scout report

Squad depthBall-winning Full-back

Cristhian Mosquera is a 22-year-old full-back at Arsenal, rated 82.2 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 92nd of 376 on scout potential in the Premier League and 102nd of 2878 U-23 players tracked. An emerging talent, he has been a fringe squad member this season (33.8% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 4.22 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Mosquera.

Judged on this season alone, Mosquera graded 35 — a solid campaign that ranks top 36% of the 64 full-backs in the Premier League, on 6 clean sheets and 4.217 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 36 → 35). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 82, top 29% of the 64 full-backs in the Premier League. At 22 Mosquera is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 93.7 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Mosquera missed 5 games through injury (ankle) out of roughly 38 this season. The 20 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

4.22 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 20 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st 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.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 4.22 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 100/100).
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 22 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 33.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 82.2, Mosquera carries the 18th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Premier League (top 29%). Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.22 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 22, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
