Scout report

Squad depthCentral defender

Travis Akomeah is a 20-year-old central defender at Gillingham, rated 29 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 192nd of 478 on scout potential in the League Two and 889th of 994 U-21 players tracked. A young player, he has been a fringe squad member this season (19% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.32 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Akomeah.

Judged on this season alone, Akomeah graded 6 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 70th of 76 of the 76 centre-backs in the League Two, on 2 clean sheets and 3.316 defensive actions per 90.

We hold a single season for Akomeah, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 29, top 37% of the 76 centre-backs in the League Two. At 20 Akomeah is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 2.7 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

3.32 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 13 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (17th of 24) 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 19% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 29, Akomeah carries the 28th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the League Two of 76 — though on just 13 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.32 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 20 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (98/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
