Scout report
Manu Morlanes is a 27-year-old defensive midfielder at Mallorca, rated 60.7 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 205th of 389 on scout potential in the La Liga. In his prime years, he has been a rotation option this season (52.3% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.82 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Morlanes.
Judged on this season alone, Morlanes graded 32 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 12th of 24 of the 24 defensive midfielders in the La Liga, on 3 goals, 0 assists and 3.823 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 16 → 32). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 61, 15th of 24 of the 24 defensive midfielders in the La Liga. At 27 Morlanes is in his prime years, and a market index of 40.2 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2020/21 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Mallorca finished 18th of 20 · a relegation-threatened side
3.82 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 32 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (18th 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 3 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.15 goal involvements per 90, useful for a defensive midfielder.
- Defensive volume. 3.82 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 52.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
With a Rating of 60.7, Morlanes carries the 15th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the La Liga of 24, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Mallorca finished 18th 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 (3.82 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. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.
