Scout report
Raúl Albiol is a 40-year-old full-back at Pisa, rated 7.1 overall by Field Insider's model. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (17.4% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.41 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Albiol.
On the season, Albiol graded 7 for current form (age-blind), on 1 clean sheet and 3.406 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 8 → 7). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 7. At 40 Albiol is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.7 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Albiol missed 6 games through injury (injury, hand) out of roughly 38 this season. The 8 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.
Past his 2021/22 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Pisa finished 20th of 20 · a relegation-threatened side
3.41 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 8 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (20th 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 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.18 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 17.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 40, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 7.1 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.41 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.5× and falling).
