Scout report
Nuno Moreira is a 27-year-old central midfielder at Vasco DA Gama, rated 47.9 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 152nd of 311 on scout potential in the Serie A. In his prime years, he has been a rotation option this season (48.5% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.69 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Moreira.
Judged on this season alone, Moreira graded 22 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 45th of 65 of the 65 central midfielders in the Serie A, on 1 goal, 1 assist and 1.688 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 37 → 22). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 48, 35th of 65 of the 65 central midfielders in the Serie A. At 27 Moreira is in his prime years, and a market index of 22.8 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Vasco DA Gama finished 19th of 20 · a relegation-threatened side
1.69 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 19 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (19th 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 1 goal and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.19 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 48.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Defensive numbers. Modest 1.69 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
Outlook
With a Rating of 47.9, Moreira carries the 35th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Serie A of 65, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Vasco DA Gama finished 19th of 20) — 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 light defensive volume (1.69 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.
