Scout report

Elite prospectWinger

Roger Fernandes is a 20-year-old winger at Al Ittihad, rated 61.3 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 1st of 349 on scout potential in the Premier League and 88th of 653 U-21 players tracked. A young player, he has been a regular starter this season (76.1% of available minutes). He brings 0.31 goal contributions per 90 (0.16 goals, 0.16 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Fernandes.

Judged on this season alone, Fernandes graded 29 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 3rd of 5 of the 5 wingers in the Premier League, on 2 goals and 2 assists in 15 appearances (0.309 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 23 → 29). Across the 4 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 61, top 20% of the 5 wingers in the Premier League. At 20 Fernandes is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 6.8 reflects that trajectory.

2 goals in 15 appearances (0.13 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 2 assists for 4 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 76.1% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 20 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

With a Rating of 61.3, Fernandes carries the 1st-highest potential of the wingers in the Premier League (top 20%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Al Ittihad finished 15th of 21) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.31 goal contributions per 90). At 20 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (98/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 20, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
