Scout report
M. Curto is a 27-year-old central defender at Empoli, rated 43.4 overall by Field Insider's model. In his prime years, he has been a fringe squad member this season (31.3% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 4.2 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Curto.
On the season, Curto graded 13 for current form (age-blind), on 2 clean sheets and 4.198 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 13 → 13). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 43. At 27 Curto is in his prime years, and a market index of 17.2 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2022/23 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Empoli finished 15th of 20 · a lower-table side
4.2 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 15 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (15th 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 0 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.17 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.
- Defensive volume. 4.2 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 31.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 43.4 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.2 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
