Scout report

Experienced headCentral defender

J. Lascelles is a 32-year-old central defender at Leicester, rated 18.9 overall by Field Insider's model. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (16.5% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.37 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Lascelles.

On the season, Lascelles graded 3 for current form (age-blind), on 1 clean sheet and 1.366 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 13 → 3). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 19. At 32 Lascelles is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 3.5 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Lascelles missed 6 games through injury (muscle, knock) out of roughly 46 this season. The 9 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

1.37 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 9 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.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 16.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 32, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 18.9 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.37 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
