Judged on this season alone, Reinildo graded 45 — a strong campaign that ranks top 18% of the 64 full-backs in the Premier League, on 6 clean sheets and 3.769 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 24 → 45). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 42, 54th of 64 of the 64 full-backs in the Premier League. At 32 Reinildo is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 33.4 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Reinildo missed 8 games through injury and 3 suspensions (international duty, knee) out of roughly 38 this season. The 25 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.
Below his 2020/21 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
