P. Gueye is a 27-year-old central midfielder at Villarreal, rated 71.3 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 150th of 389 in the La Liga. In his prime years, he has been a regular starter this season (70% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.49 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Gueye.
Judged on this season alone, Gueye graded 49 — a strong campaign that ranks top 17% of the 73 central midfielders in the La Liga, on 5 goals, 2 assists and 3.486 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 40 → 49). Across the 6 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 71, top 39% of the 73 central midfielders in the La Liga. At 27 Gueye is in his prime years, and a market index of 131.2 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Gueye missed 4 games through injury (international duty, yellow cards) out of roughly 38 this season. The 30 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
A career still climbing — Gueye is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
3.49 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 30 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd 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 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 71.3, Gueye carries the 28th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the La Liga (top 39%). Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.49 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.
Generated from Field Insider's rating model · AI-written analysis to follow.
The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~131), then tapers with age. At 27, Gueye sits on 131.2, at or near its peak. The blue line is Gueye's projected Rating — 71.3 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
