Scout report
Paulo Henrique is a 30-year-old full-back at Vasco DA Gama, rated 36.5 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 228th of 343 on scout potential in the Serie A. An experienced operator, he has been a rotation option this season (54.3% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.16 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Henrique.
Judged on this season alone, Henrique graded 15 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 29th of 51 of the 51 full-backs in the Serie A, on 2 clean sheets and 3.156 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 35 → 15). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2024/25.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 37, 40th of 51 of the 51 full-backs in the Serie A. At 30 Henrique is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 8.7 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 · Vasco DA Gama finished 16th of 20 · a lower-table side
3.16 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 19 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (16th 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 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 54.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 36.5, Henrique carries the 40th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Serie A of 51, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Vasco DA Gama finished 16th 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 moderate defensive volume (3.16 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
