Scout report

Project playerCentral defender

Léo Duarte is a 30-year-old central defender at Başakşehir, enjoying a standout season — 0 goals and 1 assists in 26 appearances, a Season grade of 47, top 6% of Süper Lig centre-backs. On long-term scout potential he's rated 31, ranking 201st of 326 in the Süper Lig. An experienced operator, he has been an ever-present (85.4% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.16 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Duarte.

Judged on this season alone, Duarte graded 47 — an excellent campaign that ranks top 6% of the 50 centre-backs in the Süper Lig, on 10 clean sheets and 3.163 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 29 → 47). Across the 6 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 31, 31st of 50 of the 50 centre-backs in the Süper Lig. At 30 Duarte is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 6 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Duarte missed 4 games through injury (wound, injury, yellow cards) out of roughly 34 this season. The 26 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

3.16 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 10 clean sheets across 26 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th of 18) 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 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 85.4% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 31, Duarte carries the 31st-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Süper Lig of 50. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.16 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
