Scout report

Squad depthBall-winning Central defender

K. Tete is a 30-year-old central defender at Fulham, rated 44.5 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 322nd of 380 on scout potential in the Premier League. An experienced operator, he has been a rotation option this season (52.7% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 4.85 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Tete.

Judged on this season alone, Tete graded 33 — a solid campaign that ranks top 36% of the 73 centre-backs in the Premier League, on 5 clean sheets and 4.845 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 27 → 33). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 45, 62nd of 73 of the 73 centre-backs in the Premier League. At 30 Tete is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 32.9 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Tete missed 7 games through injury (foot, knee, thigh) out of roughly 38 this season. The 22 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

4.85 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 22 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 4.85 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 94.7/100).

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 52.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 44.5, Tete carries the 62nd-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Premier League of 73. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.85 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
