On long-term scout potential he's rated 11.1, ranking 406th of 413 in the Serie A. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option (38.9% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.64 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Fágner.
Judged on this season alone, Fágner graded 28 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 36th of 70 of the 70 full-backs in the Serie A, on 4 clean sheets and 3.639 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 14 → 28). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 11, 70th of 70 of the 70 full-backs in the Serie A. At 37 Fágner is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.2 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Fágner missed 14 games through injury (broken leg, fracture of fibula shaft) out of roughly 38 this season. The 10 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.
Below his 2021/22 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Cruzeiro finished 3rd of 20 · an upper-table side
3.64 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 10 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd 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
- Defensive volume. 3.64 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 38.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 37, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 11.1, Fágner carries the 70th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Serie A of 70 — though on just 10 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.64 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.5× and falling).
