M. Kleinen is a 24-year-old defensive midfielder at MVV, rated 46 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 286th of 360 in the Eerste Divisie. An emerging talent, he has been a rotation option this season (42.2% 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 Kleinen.
Judged on this season alone, Kleinen graded 18 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 15th of 25 of the 25 defensive midfielders in the Eerste Divisie, on 1 goal, 0 assists and 3.864 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 36 → 18). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2024/25.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 46, 20th of 25 of the 25 defensive midfielders in the Eerste Divisie. At 24 Kleinen is in his prime years, and a market index of 37.7 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2024/25 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
3.86 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 26 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (19th 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 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 46, Kleinen carries the 20th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Eerste Divisie of 25, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (MVV finished 19th 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 (3.86 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.

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 (~38), then tapers with age. At 24, Kleinen sits on 37.7, at or near its peak. The blue line is Kleinen's projected Rating — 46 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.
