Scout report

Key starterCentral defender

Dani Vivian is a 27-year-old central defender at Athletic Club, rated 65.8 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 182nd of 389 on scout potential in the La Liga. In his prime years, he has been a regular starter this season (74.9% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.51 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Vivian.

Judged on this season alone, Vivian graded 26 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 36th of 72 of the 72 centre-backs in the La Liga, on 4 clean sheets and 3.512 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 51 → 26). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 66, 33rd of 72 of the 72 centre-backs in the La Liga. At 27 Vivian is in his prime years, and a market index of 43.6 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Vivian missed 5 games through injury and 1 suspension (thigh, yellow cards, muscle) out of roughly 38 this season. The 31 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.
