On long-term talent our Rating reads 35, 47th of 63 of the 63 defensive midfielders in the League One. At 26 Francois is in his prime years, and a market index of 7.7 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Wigan finished 16th of 24 · a mid-table side
5.01 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 13 appearances.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 5.01 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 20.8% 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 34.7, Francois carries the 47th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the League One of 63 — though on just 13 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5.01 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
