Scout report
M. Smits is a 21-year-old central midfielder at De Graafschap, rated 43.4 overall by Field Insider's model. A young player, he has been a fringe squad member this season (1.8% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Smits.
On the season, Smits graded 0 for current form (age-blind), on 0 goals, 0 assists and 0 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 8 → 0). Over the 3 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2025/26.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 43. At 21 Smits is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 11.5 reflects that trajectory.
Output in context · De Graafschap finished 15th of 20 · a lower-table side
0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume across 2 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.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 1.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 43.4 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
