Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 7 → 34). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 13, 40th of 40 of the 40 centre-backs in the Premier League. At 33 Jubal is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.8 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

3.15 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 11 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th of 16) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 3 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 72% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.28 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.

Watch points

  • Age curve. At 33, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 13.4, Jubal carries the 40th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Premier League of 40 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.15 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).
