Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Gastien.
On the season, Gastien graded 25 for current form (age-blind), on 0 goals, 3 assists and 3 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 26 → 25). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 12. At 38 Gastien is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.9 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2022/23 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Clermont Foot finished 13th of 18 · a lower-table side
3 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 27 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (13th of 18) 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 0 goals and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.16 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 53.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 38, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 12.1 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.5× and falling).
