On long-term talent our Rating reads 57, top 29% of the 96 central midfielders in the Serie A. At 26 Newton is in his prime years, and a market index of 27.2 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2024/25 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Botafogo finished 6th of 20 · an upper-table side
3.15 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 25 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (6th of 20) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 45.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
With a Rating of 57.2, Newton carries the 27th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Serie A (top 29%). Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.15 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
