M. Fraser is a 32-year-old full-back at ST Mirren, enjoying a standout season — 1 goals and 0 assists in 33 appearances, a Season grade of 30, top 39% of Premiership full-backs. On long-term scout potential he's rated 20.7, ranking 192nd of 225 in the Premiership. A seasoned veteran, he has been a regular starter (70.4% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.91 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Fraser.

Judged on this season alone, Fraser graded 30 — a solid campaign that ranks top 40% of the 41 full-backs in the Premiership, on 7 clean sheets and 3.908 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 29 → 30). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 21, 34th of 41 of the 41 full-backs in the Premiership. At 32 Fraser is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 3.1 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

3.91 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 33 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (10th of 12) 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 70.4% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Defensive volume. 3.91 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 20.7, Fraser carries the 34th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Premiership of 41, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (ST Mirren finished 10th of 12) — 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 (3.91 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
