Scout report
Tiago Ferreira is a 33-year-old central defender at Pacos Ferreira, rated 11.6 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 96th of 112 on scout potential in the Segunda Liga. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (26.5% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.56 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Ferreira.
Judged on this season alone, Ferreira graded 10 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 16th of 30 of the 30 centre-backs in the Segunda Liga, on 3 clean sheets and 1.556 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 17 → 10). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2024/25.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 12, 22nd of 30 of the 30 centre-backs in the Segunda Liga. At 33 Ferreira is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.4 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2024/25 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Pacos Ferreira finished 17th of 18 · a relegation-threatened side
1.56 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 9 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (17th 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.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 26.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 33, 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 11.6, Ferreira carries the 22nd-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Segunda Liga of 30 — though on just 9 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.56 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).
