Scout report
Riyad Idrissi is a 23-year-old full-back at Cagliari, rated 70.6 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 149th of 388 on scout potential in the Serie A. An emerging talent, he has been a fringe squad member this season (31% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.8 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Idrissi.
Judged on this season alone, Idrissi graded 15 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 59th of 63 of the 63 full-backs in the Serie A, on 2 clean sheets and 3.803 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 10 → 15).
On long-term talent our Rating reads 71, 29th of 63 of the 63 full-backs in the Serie A. At 23 Idrissi is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 43.7 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Idrissi missed 10 games through injury (knee) out of roughly 38 this season. The 23 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.
Idrissi is operating at his career peak — the 2025/26 level is the level.
Output in context · Cagliari finished 14th of 20 · a lower-table side
3.8 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 23 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (14th 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 2 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.23 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
- Defensive volume. 3.8 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 31% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
With a Rating of 70.6, Idrissi carries the 29th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Serie A of 63 — though on just 23 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.8 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 23, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
