D. Foulquier is a 33-year-old full-back at Valencia, rated 22 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 373rd of 389 on scout potential in the La Liga. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (33.8% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.87 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Foulquier.

Judged on this season alone, Foulquier graded 11 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 59th of 67 of the 67 full-backs in the La Liga, on 3 clean sheets and 1.867 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 23 → 11). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 22, 62nd of 67 of the 67 full-backs in the La Liga. At 33 Foulquier is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 5.1 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Foulquier missed 19 games through injury (knee, injury) out of roughly 38 this season. The 15 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.

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~15), then tapers with age. At 33, Foulquier sits on 5.1, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Foulquier's projected Rating — 22 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
