J. Lucumí is a 28-year-old central defender at Bologna, rated 59.5 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 237th of 388 on scout potential in the Serie A. An experienced operator, he has been a regular starter this season (75.2% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.4 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Lucumí.

Judged on this season alone, Lucumí graded 42 — a solid campaign that ranks top 35% of the 52 centre-backs in the Serie A, on 8 clean sheets and 3.404 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 41 → 42). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 60, 31st of 52 of the 52 centre-backs in the Serie A. At 28 Lucumí is in his prime years, and a market index of 25.8 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Lucumí missed 4 games through injury (injury, yellow cards) out of roughly 38 this season. The 29 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

3.4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 29 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 75.2% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 89.6/100).

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

With a Rating of 59.5, Lucumí carries the 31st-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Serie A of 52. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
