Scout report
E. Bocat is a 27-year-old full-back at Stoke City, rated 54.8 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 141st of 272 on scout potential in the Championship. In his prime years, he has been a rotation option this season (40.5% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.33 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Bocat.
Judged on this season alone, Bocat graded 21 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 21st of 37 of the 37 full-backs in the Championship, on 3 clean sheets and 3.325 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 23 → 21). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2024/25.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 55, 24th of 37 of the 37 full-backs in the Championship. At 27 Bocat is in his prime years, and a market index of 25.3 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2024/25 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Stoke City finished 6th of 24 · an upper-table side
3.33 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 11 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (6th of 24) 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 2 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.43 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 40.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
With a Rating of 54.8, Bocat carries the 24th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Championship of 37 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.33 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
