Scout report

Squad depthFull-back

G. Taylor is a 28-year-old full-back at PAOK, rated 26 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 136th of 267 on scout potential in the Super League 1. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (33.5% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.03 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Taylor.

Judged on this season alone, Taylor graded 17 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 25th of 39 of the 39 full-backs in the Super League 1, on 5 clean sheets and 1.026 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 45 → 17). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 26, 23rd of 39 of the 39 full-backs in the Super League 1. At 28 Taylor is in his prime years, and a market index of 2.6 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

1.03 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 12 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 14) 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 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 33.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 26, Taylor carries the 23rd-highest potential of the full-backs in the Super League 1 of 39 — though on just 12 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.03 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
