A young player, he has been a fringe squad member this season (33.9% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 4.73 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Hato.
Judged on this season alone, Hato graded 20 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 48th of 64 of the 64 full-backs in the Premier League, on 3 clean sheets and 4.733 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 65 → 20). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2024/25.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 80, top 38% of the 64 full-backs in the Premier League. At 20 Hato is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 81.3 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2024/25 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Chelsea finished 10th of 20 · a mid-table side
4.73 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 22 appearances.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 4.73 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
- Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 95.3/100).
- Ceiling. High potential at just 20 — room to grow into a bigger role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 33.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
With a Rating of 79.7, Hato carries the 24th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Premier League (top 38%). Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.73 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 20 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (98/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 20, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
