Output in context · Qingdao Youth Island finished 9th of 16 · a mid-table side
4.19 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 17 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.32 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
- Creativity. 0.32 assists per 90 — a genuine creative outlet.
- Defensive volume. 4.19 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 54.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 35, 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 9.4, Xinli carries the 45th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Super League of 51 — though on just 17 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.19 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
