Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Simpson-Pusey.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 0 → 1).

On long-term talent our Rating reads 41, 26th of 55 of the 55 full-backs in the Bundesliga. At 20 Simpson-Pusey is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 7.7 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Simpson-Pusey missed 4 games through injury and 2 suspensions (muscle) out of roughly 38 this season. The 1 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.

Clean sheets

4.22 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume across 1 appearance. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 12) 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.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 4.22 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 1.9% 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 40.7, Simpson-Pusey carries the 26th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Bundesliga of 55 — though on just 1 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.22 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 20 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (98/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
