On long-term talent our Rating reads 75. At 24 Couto is in his prime years, and a market index of 44.9 reflects that trajectory.

Output in context · Borussia Dortmund finished 2nd of 18 · a title-challenging side
2.46 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 20 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 18) 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 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.41 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.
- Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 90.5/100).
Watch points
- Game time. Only 35.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
Rated 75.2 overall — elite — among the best in the position. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.46 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
