V. N'Simba is a 33-year-old full-back at Clermont Foot, rated 14.9 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 310th of 321 in the Ligue 2. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (27.4% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.9 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on N'Simba.
Judged on this season alone, N'Simba graded 9 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 51st of 55 of the 55 full-backs in the Ligue 2, on 2 clean sheets and 2.896 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 36 → 9). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 15, 54th of 55 of the 55 full-backs in the Ligue 2. At 33 N'Simba is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 5.4 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2020/21 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
2.9 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 16 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (13th 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.
With a Rating of 14.9, N'Simba carries the 54th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Ligue 2 of 55 — though on just 16 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.9 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~16), then tapers with age. At 33, N'Simba sits on 5.4, past its peak and easing. The blue line is N'Simba's projected Rating — 14.9 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
