Scout report
J. Šimić is a 21-year-old central defender at Al Ittihad, rated 49.5 overall by Field Insider's model. A young player, he has been a fringe squad member this season (10.7% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 4.42 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Šimić.
On the season, Šimić graded 10 for current form (age-blind), on 1 clean sheet and 4.417 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 9 → 55). Across the 4 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 50. At 21 Šimić is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 5.8 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2024/25 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Al Ittihad finished 15th of 21 · a lower-table side
4.42 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 2 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (15th of 21) 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.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 4.42 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 10.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
Rated 49.5 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.42 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.
