Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Bruno.

Judged on this season alone, Bruno graded 23 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 38th of 63 of the 63 centre-backs in the Serie A, on 4 clean sheets and 2.093 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 61 → 23). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2025/26.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 44, 34th of 63 of the 63 centre-backs in the Serie A. At 30 Bruno is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 10.5 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

2.09 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 21 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th 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.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 87.6% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 44.3, Bruno carries the 34th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Serie A of 63. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.09 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
