In his prime years, he has been a regular starter this season (62.1% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.9 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Kioso.

Judged on this season alone, Kioso graded 19 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 49th of 88 of the 88 centre-backs in the League One, on 6 clean sheets and 2.904 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 31 → 19). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2024/25.

Clean sheets

2.9 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 31 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (18th of 24) 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 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 62.1% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 39.9, Kioso carries the 35th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the League One (top 40%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Peterborough finished 18th of 24) — 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 (2.9 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.
