Squad depthAttacking midfielder

J. Perea is a 26-year-old attacking midfielder at FC Zurich, rated 34.5 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 146th of 233 on scout potential in the Super League. In his prime years, he has been a rotation option this season (35% of available minutes). He brings 0.26 goal contributions per 90 (0.26 goals, 0 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Perea.

Judged on this season alone, Perea graded 12 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 40th of 44 of the 44 attacking midfielders in the Super League, on 2 goals and 0 assists in 22 appearances (0.26 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 20 → 12). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 35, 35th of 44 of the 44 attacking midfielders in the Super League. At 26 Perea is in his prime years, and a market index of 6.7 reflects that trajectory.

2 goals in 22 appearances (0.09 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 35% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Output. 0.26 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.17 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 34.5, Perea carries the 35th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Super League of 44 — though on just 22 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.26 goal contributions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
