Scout report
T. van Gilst is a 23-year-old central midfielder at Heracles, rated 60 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 149th of 282 on scout potential in the Eredivisie. An emerging talent, he has been a rotation option this season (41.7% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.55 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Gilst.
Judged on this season alone, Gilst graded 17 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 43rd of 55 of the 55 central midfielders in the Eredivisie, on 2 goals, 0 assists and 1.551 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 40 → 17). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2024/25.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 60, 33rd of 55 of the 55 central midfielders in the Eredivisie. At 23 Gilst is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 27.6 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2024/25 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Heracles finished 18th of 18 · a relegation-threatened side
1.55 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 28 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (18th 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. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 41.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Defensive numbers. Modest 1.55 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
Outlook
With a Rating of 60, Gilst carries the 33rd-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Eredivisie of 55, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Heracles finished 18th of 18) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.55 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 23, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
