Scout report
M. Faye is a 22-year-old central defender at Cremonese, rated 63.4 overall by Field Insider's model. An emerging talent, he has been a fringe squad member this season (9.3% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 5.4 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Faye.
On the season, Faye graded 8 for current form (age-blind), on 1 clean sheet and 5.4 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 12 → 8).
On long-term talent our Rating reads 63. At 22 Faye is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 37.3 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Faye missed 8 games through injury (ankle, face, injury) out of roughly 38 this season. The 8 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.
Below his 2024/25 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Cremonese finished 18th of 20 · a relegation-threatened side
5.4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 8 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (18th 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.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 5.4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
- Ceiling. High potential at just 22 — room to grow into a bigger role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 9.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
Rated 63.4 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5.4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 22, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
