Scout report
I. M'Bahia is a 21-year-old central defender at Clermont Foot, rated 61.2 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 50th of 329 on scout potential in the Ligue 2 and 591st of 2847 U-23 players tracked. A young player, he has been a regular starter this season (71.1% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.47 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on M'Bahia.
Judged on this season alone, M'Bahia graded 23 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 44th of 74 of the 74 centre-backs in the Ligue 2, on 4 clean sheets and 3.473 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 3 → 23). Across the 3 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 61, top 10% of the 74 centre-backs in the Ligue 2. At 21 M'Bahia is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 20.6 reflects that trajectory.
A career still climbing — M'Bahia is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
Output in context · Clermont Foot finished 13th of 18 · a lower-table side
3.47 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 28 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (13th of 18) 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 2 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 71.1% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Ceiling. High potential at just 21 — room to grow into a bigger role.
Watch points
- Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.
Outlook
With a Rating of 61.2, M'Bahia carries the 7th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Ligue 2 (top 10%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Clermont Foot finished 13th of 18) — 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 (3.47 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 21, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
