Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Kluivert.
Judged on this season alone, Kluivert graded 28 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 46th of 63 of the 63 full-backs in the Ligue 1, on 4 clean sheets and 3.354 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 15 → 28). Across the 6 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 74, top 31% of the 63 full-backs in the Ligue 1. At 25 Kluivert is in his prime years, and a market index of 43 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Kluivert missed 10 games through injury (hamstring, ankle, muscle) out of roughly 34 this season. The 16 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.
Kluivert is operating at his career peak — the 2025/26 level is the level.
Output in context · Lyon finished 4th of 18 · an upper-table side
3.35 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 16 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th of 18) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.34 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
- Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 88.4/100).
Watch points
- Game time. Only 37.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
With a Rating of 73.8, Kluivert carries the 19th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Ligue 1 of 63 — though on just 16 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.35 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
