Sydie Peck is a 21-year-old central midfielder at Sheffield Utd, rated 78.4 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 2nd of 493 on scout potential in the Championship and 176th of 2874 U-23 players tracked. A young player, he has been an ever-present this season (87.2% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.33 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Peck.

Judged on this season alone, Peck graded 53 — an excellent campaign that ranks top 6% of the 73 central midfielders in the Championship, on 5 goals, 4 assists and 3.33 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 27 → 53). Across the 3 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 78, top 3% of the 73 central midfielders in the Championship. At 21 Peck is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 36.8 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Peck missed 4 games through injury (calf, injury) out of roughly 46 this season. The 40 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.

Clean sheets

3.33 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 40 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 5 goals and 4 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 87.2% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.25 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 21 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

With a Rating of 78.4, Peck carries the 2nd-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Championship (top 3%). Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.33 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 21, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
