Output in context · Palermo finished 4th of 20 · an upper-table side
2.54 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 15 clean sheets across 38 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th 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 5 goals and 5 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 81.6% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.31 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
Watch points
- Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.
Outlook
With a Rating of 71.4, Pierozzi carries the 2nd-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Serie B (top 5%). Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.54 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
