An experienced operator, he has been a regular starter this season (63.7% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.65 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Winks.
Judged on this season alone, Winks graded 26 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 38th of 65 of the 65 defensive midfielders in the Championship, on 1 goal, 2 assists and 2.652 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 19 → 26). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 36, 51st of 65 of the 65 defensive midfielders in the Championship. At 30 Winks is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 10.1 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2023/24 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
2.65 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 34 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. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 63.7% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Watch points
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 35.6, Winks carries the 51st-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Championship of 65, 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 moderate defensive volume (2.65 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
