Scout report
H. Choudhury is a 28-year-old defensive midfielder at Leicester, rated 40.5 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 374th of 495 on scout potential in the Championship. An experienced operator, he has been a rotation option this season (36.6% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 5.4 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Choudhury.
Judged on this season alone, Choudhury graded 15 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 27th of 40 of the 40 defensive midfielders in the Championship, on 0 goals, 0 assists and 5.399 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 12 → 15). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 41, 29th of 40 of the 40 defensive midfielders in the Championship. At 28 Choudhury is in his prime years, and a market index of 11.2 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Choudhury missed 5 games through injury (knee) out of roughly 46 this season. The 30 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.
Below his 2022/23 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Leicester finished 23rd of 24 · a relegation-threatened side
5.4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 30 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (23rd 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.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 5.4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 36.6% 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 40.5, Choudhury carries the 29th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Championship of 40, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Leicester finished 23rd of 24) — 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 high defensive volume (5.4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
