Scout report

Experienced headCentral defender

Luan Peres is a 32-year-old central defender at Santos, rated 29.9 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 233rd of 311 on scout potential in the Serie A. A seasoned veteran, he has been a regular starter this season (68.8% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.67 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Peres.

Judged on this season alone, Peres graded 27 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 34th of 63 of the 63 centre-backs in the Serie A, on 3 clean sheets and 3.666 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 26 → 27). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 30, 43rd of 63 of the 63 centre-backs in the Serie A. At 32 Peres is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 8.4 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

3.67 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 18 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (14th of 20) 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 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 68.8% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Defensive volume. 3.67 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Age curve. At 32, 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 29.9, Peres carries the 43rd-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Serie A of 63, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Santos finished 14th of 20) — 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 (3.67 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
