Scout report
S. Graves is a 27-year-old central defender at PEC Zwolle, rated 55.7 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 53rd of 102 on scout potential in the Eredivisie. In his prime years, he has been an ever-present this season (87.6% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.19 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Graves.
Judged on this season alone, Graves graded 28 — a solid campaign that ranks top 34% of the 24 centre-backs in the Eredivisie, on 5 clean sheets and 3.189 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 28 → 28). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2025/26.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 56, 11th of 24 of the 24 centre-backs in the Eredivisie. At 27 Graves is in his prime years, and a market index of 25.7 reflects that trajectory.
A career still climbing — Graves is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
Output in context · PEC Zwolle finished 15th of 18 · a lower-table side
3.19 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 32 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (15th of 18) 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 0 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 87.6% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Watch points
- Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.
Outlook
With a Rating of 55.7, Graves carries the 11th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Eredivisie of 24, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (PEC Zwolle finished 15th of 18) — 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 (3.19 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.
