Scout report

Experienced headCentral midfielder

R. Sanusi is a 34-year-old central midfielder at Beerschot VA, rated 9.4 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 236th of 238 on scout potential in the Challenger Pro League. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (26% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.24 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Sanusi.

Judged on this season alone, Sanusi graded 6 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 52nd of 54 of the 54 central midfielders in the Challenger Pro League, on 0 goals, 0 assists and 3.244 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 16 → 6). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 9, 54th of 54 of the 54 central midfielders in the Challenger Pro League. At 34 Sanusi is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.6 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

3.24 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 16 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 17) 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.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 26% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 34, 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 9.4, Sanusi carries the 54th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Challenger Pro League of 54 — though on just 16 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.24 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
