Scout report

Experienced headBall-winning Defensive midfielder

M. Luongo is a 33-year-old defensive midfielder at Millwall, rated 17.4 overall by Field Insider's model. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (26.3% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 5.7 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Luongo.

On the season, Luongo graded 11 for current form (age-blind), on 0 goals, 0 assists and 5.704 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 3 → 11). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 17. At 33 Luongo is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.9 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Luongo missed 37 games through injury (knee, injury) out of roughly 48 this season. The 9 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.

Clean sheets

5.7 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 9 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 24) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 5.7 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 26.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 33, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 17.4 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5.7 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).
