Scout report
J. de Wijs is a 31-year-old central defender at Fortuna Düsseldorf, rated 19.4 overall by Field Insider's model. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (3.9% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 4.5 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Wijs.
On the season, Wijs graded 1 for current form (age-blind), on 0 clean sheets and 4.5 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 0 → 1). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 19. At 31 Wijs is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 3.3 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Fortuna Düsseldorf finished 17th of 18 · a relegation-threatened side
4.5 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume across 8 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (17th 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 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.75 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.
- Defensive volume. 4.5 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 3.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 31, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 19.4 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.5 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
