In his prime years, he has been a rotation option this season (39.9% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.69 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Morato.
Judged on this season alone, Morato graded 21 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 46th of 64 of the 64 centre-backs in the Premier League, on 4 clean sheets and 3.69 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 19 → 21). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 71, 29th of 64 of the 64 centre-backs in the Premier League. At 25 Morato is in his prime years, and a market index of 85.4 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Nottingham Forest finished 16th of 20 · a lower-table side
3.69 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 21 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (16th of 20) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 3.69 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
- Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 92.1/100).
Watch points
- Game time. Only 39.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
With a Rating of 71.2, Morato carries the 29th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Premier League of 64, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Nottingham Forest finished 16th of 20) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.69 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.
