M. Steffen is a 23-year-old central defender at Vitesse, rated 50.1 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 207th of 360 in the Eerste Divisie. An emerging talent, he has been a rotation option this season (43.7% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.62 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Steffen.
Judged on this season alone, Steffen graded 18 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 40th of 57 of the 57 centre-backs in the Eerste Divisie, on 4 clean sheets and 3.617 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 23 → 18). Over the 3 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2024/25.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 50, 32nd of 57 of the 57 centre-backs in the Eerste Divisie. At 23 Steffen is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 41.1 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2024/25 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
3.62 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 19 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 2 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 50.1, Steffen carries the 32nd-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Eerste Divisie of 57, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Vitesse finished 15th 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 (3.62 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 23, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~41), then tapers with age. At 23, Steffen sits on 41.1, at or near its peak. The blue line is Steffen's projected Rating — 50.1 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
