A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (12.3% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.63 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Mesquita.

On the season, Mesquita graded 4 for current form (age-blind), on 1 clean sheet and 2.633 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 7 → 4). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 8. At 35 Mesquita is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.6 reflects that trajectory.

2.63 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 14 appearances.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 12.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 35, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 8 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.63 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
