Scout report
S. Fofana is a 31-year-old defensive midfielder at Rennes, rated 30 overall by Field Insider's model. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (21.8% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.08 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Fofana.
On the season, Fofana graded 8 for current form (age-blind), on 1 goal, 0 assists and 1.078 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 8 → 7). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 30. At 31 Fofana is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 7.9 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2021/22 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Rennes finished 6th of 18 · an upper-table side
1.08 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 12 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (6th 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 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 21.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 31, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 30 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.08 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
