On long-term talent our Rating reads 21, 68th of 79 of the 79 full-backs in the League One. At 34 Darikwa is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 3.9 reflects that trajectory.
A career still climbing — Darikwa is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
3.36 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 18 clean sheets across 45 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st 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. Going forward he chipped in 6 goals and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 20.9, Darikwa carries the 68th-highest potential of the full-backs in the League One of 79. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.36 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).

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 (~13), then tapers with age. At 34, Darikwa sits on 3.9, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Darikwa's projected Rating — 20.9 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.
