S. McLoughlin is a 29-year-old central defender at Blackburn, rated 47.3 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 330th of 493 in the Championship. An experienced operator, he has been an ever-present this season (94.5% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 4.14 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on McLoughlin.
Judged on this season alone, McLoughlin graded 46 — an excellent campaign that ranks top 7% of the 82 centre-backs in the Championship, on 11 clean sheets and 4.142 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 20 → 46). Across the 6 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 47, 50th of 82 of the 82 centre-backs in the Championship. At 29 McLoughlin is in his prime years, and a market index of 33.3 reflects that trajectory.
A career still climbing — McLoughlin is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
4.14 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 11 clean sheets across 44 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (20th of 24) 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.
With a Rating of 47.3, McLoughlin carries the 50th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Championship of 82, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Blackburn finished 20th of 24) — 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 solid defensive volume (4.14 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).

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 (~61), then tapers with age. At 29, McLoughlin sits on 33.3, past its peak and easing. The blue line is McLoughlin's projected Rating — 47.3 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.
