An emerging talent, he has been a fringe squad member this season (16.5% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.97 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Plant.
Judged on this season alone, Plant graded 6 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 66th of 67 of the 67 defensive midfielders in the League Two, on 1 goal, 0 assists and 1.974 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 0 → 6). Across the 4 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 28, 33rd of 67 of the 67 defensive midfielders in the League Two. At 22 Plant is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 8.1 reflects that trajectory.
Plant is operating at his career peak — the 2025/26 level is the level.
1.97 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 14 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (21st 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 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 28.3, Plant carries the 33rd-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the League Two of 67 — though on just 14 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.97 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
Generated from Field Insider's rating model · AI-written analysis to follow.
The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~9), then tapers with age. At 22, Plant sits on 8.1, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Plant's projected Rating — 28.3 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
