Gerard Yepes is a 23-year-old defensive midfielder at Empoli, rated 59.5 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 93rd of 397 in the Serie B. An emerging talent, he has been a regular starter this season (63.9% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.34 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Yepes.
Judged on this season alone, Yepes graded 28 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 28th of 56 of the 56 defensive midfielders in the Serie B, on 1 goal, 1 assist and 3.336 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 15 → 28). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 60, top 31% of the 56 defensive midfielders in the Serie B. At 23 Yepes is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 65.5 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2023/24 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
3.34 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 32 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (15th 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 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 59.5, Yepes carries the 17th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Serie B (top 31%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Empoli finished 15th 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 moderate defensive volume (3.34 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 23, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~66), then tapers with age. At 23, Yepes sits on 65.5, at or near its peak. The blue line is Yepes's projected Rating — 59.5 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
