We hold a single season for Baidoo, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 84, top 4% of the 53 centre-backs in the Ligue 1. At 22 Baidoo is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 129.6 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Baidoo missed 10 games through injury (muscle) out of roughly 34 this season. The 23 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.
4.03 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 23 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd 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 2 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 84.2, Baidoo carries the 2nd-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Ligue 1 (top 4%). Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.03 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 22, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.

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 (~136), then tapers with age. At 22, Baidoo sits on 129.6, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Baidoo's projected Rating — 84.2 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.
