J. Laurent is a 31-year-old central midfielder at Burnley, rated 36.6 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 338th of 376 in the Premier League. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option this season (53.5% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 4.19 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Laurent.
Judged on this season alone, Laurent graded 27 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 24th of 35 of the 35 central midfielders in the Premier League, on 1 goal, 0 assists and 4.19 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 45 → 27). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 37, 33rd of 35 of the 35 central midfielders in the Premier League. At 31 Laurent is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 23.9 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2020/21 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
4.19 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 33 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (19th of 20) 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.
With a Rating of 36.6, Laurent carries the 33rd-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Premier League of 35, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Burnley finished 19th of 20) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.19 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).

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 (~53), then tapers with age. At 31, Laurent sits on 23.9, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Laurent's projected Rating — 36.6 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.
