Scout report

Squad depthFull-back

C. Cauz is a 30-year-old full-back at Modena, rated 25.6 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 85th of 115 on scout potential in the Serie B. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (6.2% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.08 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Cauz.

Judged on this season alone, Cauz graded 3 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 17th of 17 of the 17 full-backs in the Serie B, on 1 clean sheet and 2.083 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 3 → 3). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 26, 14th of 17 of the 17 full-backs in the Serie B. At 30 Cauz is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 5.1 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

2.08 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 4 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (6th 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.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 6.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 25.6, Cauz carries the 14th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Serie B of 17 — though on just 4 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.08 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
