Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 29 → 29). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2025/26.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 24. At 31 Evans is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 4 reflects that trajectory.
A career still climbing — Evans is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
Output in context · Burton Albion finished 17th of 24 · a lower-table side
2.67 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 33 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (17th of 24) 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 2 goals and 4 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 64.3% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.2 goal involvements per 90, useful for a defensive midfielder.
Watch points
- Age curve. At 31, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 23.7 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.67 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
