Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Thani.

Judged on this season alone, Thani graded 20 — a solid campaign that ranks top 34% of the 27 centre-backs in the Pro League, on 4 clean sheets and 3.343 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 20 → 20). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.

Clean sheets

3.34 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 26 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (13th of 18) 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 55.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 32.4, Thani carries the 13th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Pro League of 27, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Al Shabab finished 13th of 18) — 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 (3.34 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
