Scout report
Lima is a 30-year-old central midfielder at Fluminense, rated 26.5 overall by Field Insider's model. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (1.6% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Lima.
On the season, Lima graded 0 for current form (age-blind), on 2 goals, 1 assist and 0 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 17 → 17). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 27. At 30 Lima is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 6.3 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 · Fluminense finished 5th of 20 · an upper-table side
0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 28 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th 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 2 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 1.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 26.5 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
