Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Cajuste.
Judged on this season alone, Cajuste graded 16 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 51st of 73 of the 73 central midfielders in the Championship, on 1 goal, 3 assists and 2.691 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 31 → 16). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2024/25.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 56, 41st of 73 of the 73 central midfielders in the Championship. At 26 Cajuste is in his prime years, and a market index of 72.1 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2024/25 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
2.69 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 30 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 24) 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. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 56.3, Cajuste carries the 41st-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Championship of 73. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.69 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.

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 (~72), then tapers with age. At 26, Cajuste sits on 72.1, at or near its peak. The blue line is Cajuste's projected Rating — 56.3 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.
