An emerging talent, he has been an ever-present this season (88.4% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.66 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Mengi.
Judged on this season alone, Mengi graded 34 — an excellent campaign that ranks top 11% of the 88 centre-backs in the League One, on 6 clean sheets and 2.657 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 18 → 34). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 50, top 3% of the 88 centre-backs in the League One. At 24 Mengi is in his prime years, and a market index of 12.6 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Mengi missed 37 games through injury (jumpers knee) out of roughly 46 this season. The 21 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.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Luton finished 7th of 24 · an upper-table side
2.66 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 21 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (7th of 24) 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.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 88.4% 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 50.1, Mengi carries the 2nd-highest potential of the centre-backs in the League One (top 3%). Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.66 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
