Scout report
N. Clyne is a 35-year-old full-back at Crystal Palace, rated 15.4 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 375th of 376 on scout potential in the Premier League. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (17.7% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.43 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Clyne.
Judged on this season alone, Clyne graded 10 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 62nd of 64 of the 64 full-backs in the Premier League, on 2 clean sheets and 3.427 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 9 → 10). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 15, 64th of 64 of the 64 full-backs in the Premier League. At 35 Clyne is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 5.9 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2021/22 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Crystal Palace finished 15th of 20 · a lower-table side
3.43 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 10 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. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 92.6/100).
Watch points
- Game time. Only 17.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 35, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 15.4, Clyne carries the 64th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Premier League of 64 — though on just 10 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.43 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
