Scout report

Squad depthCentral defender

E. Annan is a 23-year-old central defender at Saint Etienne, rated 58.6 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 88th of 313 on scout potential in the Ligue 2. An emerging talent, he has been a rotation option this season (44.6% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.53 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Annan.

Judged on this season alone, Annan graded 22 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 40th of 66 of the 66 centre-backs in the Ligue 2, on 5 clean sheets and 2.532 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 1 → 22).

On long-term talent our Rating reads 59, top 23% of the 66 centre-backs in the Ligue 2. At 23 Annan is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 21.9 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Annan missed 3 games through injury (sprained ankle) out of roughly 34 this season. The 18 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

2.53 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 18 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 18) 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. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Outlook

With a Rating of 58.6, Annan carries the 15th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Ligue 2 (top 23%). Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.53 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 23, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
