Experienced headCentral midfielder

Felipe Anderson is a 33-year-old central midfielder at Palmeiras, enjoying a standout season — 4 goals and 2 assists in 31 appearances, a Season grade of 40, top 8% of Serie A central midfielders. On long-term scout potential he's rated 25.2, ranking 321st of 413 in the Serie A. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option (57% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.76 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Anderson.

Judged on this season alone, Anderson graded 40 — an excellent campaign that ranks top 8% of the 63 central midfielders in the Serie A, on 4 goals, 2 assists and 3.76 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 25 → 40). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 25, 50th of 63 of the 63 central midfielders in the Serie A. At 33 Anderson is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 7 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Anderson missed 3 games through injury (problems with the hip flexor, injury) out of roughly 38 this season. The 31 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

3.76 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 31 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd 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. Going forward he chipped in 4 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.3 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
  • Defensive volume. 3.76 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 57% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 33, 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 25.2, Anderson carries the 50th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Serie A of 63. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.76 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).
