Scout report

Squad depthFull-back

Harley Mills is a 22-year-old full-back at Peterborough, rated 43.4 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 150th of 481 on scout potential in the League One and 1505th of 2874 U-23 players tracked. An emerging talent, he has been a rotation option this season (42.8% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.2 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Mills.

Judged on this season alone, Mills graded 14 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 63rd of 79 of the 79 full-backs in the League One, on 4 clean sheets and 3.198 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 2 → 14).

On long-term talent our Rating reads 43, top 26% of the 79 full-backs in the League One. At 22 Mills is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 9.2 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

3.2 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 24 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (18th 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.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 42.8% 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 43.4, Mills carries the 20th-highest potential of the full-backs in the League One (top 26%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Peterborough finished 18th 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 moderate defensive volume (3.2 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
