One of the biggest game-time risers in the Eredivisie: on the pitch for 87% of Feyenoord's available minutes this season, up from 31% last year — a bench-to-starter jump the ratings will catch up with at the next checkpoint.

Squad depthCreative Central defender

G. Read is a 20-year-old central defender at Feyenoord, rated 67 overall by Field Insider's model. A young player, he has been a fringe squad member this season (30.7% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.06 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Read.

On the season, Read graded 14 for current form (age-blind), on 3 clean sheets and 3.064 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 14 → 14). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 67. At 20 Read is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 26.2 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

3.06 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 16 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 18) 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 1 goal and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.38 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 20 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 30.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 67 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.06 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. At 20 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (98/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 20, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
