Scout report
G. Pezzella is a 28-year-old central midfielder at Cremonese, rated 59 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 243rd of 388 on scout potential in the Serie A. An experienced operator, he has been an ever-present this season (90% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.71 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Pezzella.
Judged on this season alone, Pezzella graded 30 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 31st of 68 of the 68 central midfielders in the Serie A, on 0 goals, 1 assist and 2.709 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 22 → 30). Across the 6 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 59, 42nd of 68 of the 68 central midfielders in the Serie A. At 28 Pezzella is in his prime years, and a market index of 21.9 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Pezzella missed 5 games through injury and 1 suspension (contusion, illness, yellow cards) 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.
A career still climbing — Pezzella is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
Output in context · Cremonese finished 18th of 20 · a relegation-threatened side
2.71 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 31 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (18th 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 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 90% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Watch points
- Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.
Outlook
With a Rating of 59, Pezzella carries the 42nd-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Serie A of 68, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Cremonese finished 18th 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 (2.71 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years). Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.
