Scout report

Experienced headCentral midfielder

R. Gosens is a 32-year-old central midfielder at Fiorentina, rated 32.2 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 338th of 388 on scout potential in the Serie A. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option this season (55.4% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.95 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Gosens.

Judged on this season alone, Gosens graded 32 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 32nd of 63 of the 63 full-backs in the Serie A, on 3 goals, 1 assist and 2.948 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 39 → 32). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 32, 57th of 63 of the 63 full-backs in the Serie A. At 32 Gosens is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 13.3 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Gosens missed 8 games through injury (thigh, injury, muscle) out of roughly 38 this season. The 26 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.

Clean sheets

2.95 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 26 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (15th 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 3 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.19 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 55.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 32, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 32.2, Gosens carries the 57th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Serie A of 63, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Fiorentina finished 15th 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 (2.95 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
