In his prime years, he has been a rotation option this season (53.3% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.91 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Graham.

Judged on this season alone, Graham graded 16 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 14th of 19 of the 19 centre-backs in the Premiership, on 4 clean sheets and 2.911 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 14 → 16). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 43, top 32% of the 19 centre-backs in the Premiership. At 25 Graham is in his prime years, and a market index of 9.5 reflects that trajectory.
