Scout report
M. van de Ven is a 25-year-old central defender at Tottenham, rated 85.4 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 65th of 376 on scout potential in the Premier League. In his prime years, he has been an ever-present this season (91.7% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.48 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Ven.
Judged on this season alone, Ven graded 34 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 28th of 64 of the 64 centre-backs in the Premier League, on 8 clean sheets and 2.475 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 9 → 34). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 85, top 10% of the 64 centre-backs in the Premier League. At 25 Ven is in his prime years, and a market index of 102.5 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2022/23 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Tottenham finished 17th of 20 · a lower-table side
2.48 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 35 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (17th 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 4 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 91.7% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 91.6/100).
Watch points
- Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.
Outlook
With a Rating of 85.4, Ven carries the 6th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Premier League (top 10%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Tottenham finished 17th 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 moderate defensive volume (2.48 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.
