Scout report
V. Lindelöf is a 32-year-old central defender at Aston Villa, rated 29 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 356th of 376 on scout potential in the Premier League. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (28.8% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.83 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Lindelöf.
Judged on this season alone, Lindelöf graded 11 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 60th of 64 of the 64 centre-backs in the Premier League, on 3 clean sheets and 1.827 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 22 → 11). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 29, 62nd of 64 of the 64 centre-backs in the Premier League. At 32 Lindelöf is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 13.9 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2020/21 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Aston Villa finished 4th of 20 · an upper-table side
1.83 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 17 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th of 20) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 98.4/100).
Watch points
- Game time. Only 28.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 32, 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 29, Lindelöf carries the 62nd-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Premier League of 64. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.83 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
