Project playerDefensive midfielder

L. Palmiero is a 30-year-old defensive midfielder at Avellino, rated 37.5 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 282nd of 397 on scout potential in the Serie B. An experienced operator, he has been a regular starter this season (73.5% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.86 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Palmiero.

Judged on this season alone, Palmiero graded 28 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 26th of 56 of the 56 defensive midfielders in the Serie B, on 0 goals, 1 assist and 3.859 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 27 → 28). Over the 3 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 38, 44th of 56 of the 56 defensive midfielders in the Serie B. At 30 Palmiero is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 9.2 reflects that trajectory.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 73.5% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Defensive volume. 3.86 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

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

Outlook

With a Rating of 37.5, Palmiero carries the 44th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Serie B of 56. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.86 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
