Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Bellingham.

Judged on this season alone, Bellingham graded 65 — a standout campaign that ranks top 5% of the 73 central midfielders in the La Liga, on 6 goals, 4 assists and 3.146 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 52 → 65). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 94, top 2% of the 73 central midfielders in the La Liga. At 23 Bellingham is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 119.2 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Bellingham missed 10 games through injury (hamstring, shoulder) out of roughly 38 this season. The 28 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.

Clean sheets

3.15 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 28 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 20) 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 6 goals and 4 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 76.1% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.47 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 95.5/100).

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

With a Rating of 94.2, Bellingham carries the 1st-highest potential of the central midfielders in the La Liga (top 2%). Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.15 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 23, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
