Scout report
Thiago Silva is a 41-year-old central defender at Fluminense, rated 18.5 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 373rd of 413 on scout potential in the Serie A. A seasoned veteran, he has been a regular starter this season (78.4% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.77 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Silva.
Judged on this season alone, Silva graded 7 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 64th of 68 of the 68 centre-backs in the Serie A, on 0 clean sheets and 1.769 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 19 → 7). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 19, 63rd of 68 of the 68 centre-backs in the Serie A. At 41 Silva is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.2 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Silva missed 9 games through injury (hamstring, inactive, muscle) out of roughly 38 this season. The 25 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 2021/22 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Fluminense finished 5th of 20 · an upper-table side
1.77 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume across 25 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th of 20) 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 2 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 78.4% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Watch points
- Defensive numbers. Modest 1.77 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
- Age curve. At 41, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 18.5, Silva carries the 63rd-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Serie A of 68. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.77 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.5× and falling).
