Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.17 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 54.9% 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 40.1, Ferrara carries the 20th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Challenger Pro League of 42 — though on just 0 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.07 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
