Scout report

Squad depthCentral defender

L. Cass is a 26-year-old central defender at Harrogate Town, rated 25.2 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 69th of 134 on scout potential in the League Two. In his prime years, he has been a rotation option this season (40% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.8 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Cass.

Judged on this season alone, Cass graded 14 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 14th of 33 of the 33 centre-backs in the League Two, on 4 clean sheets and 3.804 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 13 → 14). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 25, 19th of 33 of the 33 centre-backs in the League Two. At 26 Cass is in his prime years, and a market index of 2.7 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

3.8 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 25 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (23rd of 24) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 3.8 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 40% 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 25.2, Cass carries the 19th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the League Two of 33, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Harrogate Town finished 23rd of 24) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.8 tackles, blocks & interceptions 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.
