Scout report

Key starterAttacking midfielder

J. Knight is a 25-year-old attacking midfielder at Bristol City, rated 65.2 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 119th of 493 on scout potential in the Championship. In his prime years, he has been a regular starter this season (77.1% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Knight.

Judged on this season alone, Knight graded 9 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 65th of 69 of the 69 attacking midfielders in the Championship, on 0 goals and 2 assists in 34 appearances (0.065 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 45 → 9). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 65, top 38% of the 69 attacking midfielders in the Championship. At 25 Knight is in his prime years, and a market index of 30 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Knight missed 6 games through injury (injury) out of roughly 46 this season. The 34 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.
