S. Esposito is a 25-year-old central midfielder at Spezia, rated 53.5 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 177th of 397 in the Serie B. In his prime years, he has been a rotation option this season (50.7% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.01 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Esposito.
Judged on this season alone, Esposito graded 24 — a solid campaign that ranks top 38% of the 79 central midfielders in the Serie B, on 1 goal, 2 assists and 3.012 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 39 → 24). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 54, 35th of 79 of the 79 central midfielders in the Serie B. At 25 Esposito is in his prime years, and a market index of 58.9 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
3.01 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 23 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (19th 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 1 goal and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 53.5, Esposito carries the 35th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Serie B of 79, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Spezia finished 19th 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 (3.01 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~59), then tapers with age. At 25, Esposito sits on 58.9, at or near its peak. The blue line is Esposito's projected Rating — 53.5 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
