Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Tielemans.
Judged on this season alone, Tielemans graded 53 — a strong campaign that ranks top 17% of the 55 defensive midfielders in the Premier League, on 0 goals, 4 assists and 4.322 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 61 → 53). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 63, 33rd of 55 of the 55 defensive midfielders in the Premier League. At 29 Tielemans is in his prime years, and a market index of 69.4 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Tielemans missed 13 games through injury (ankle, calf) out of roughly 38 this season. The 25 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
Below his 2020/21 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
4.32 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 25 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 4 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 63.1, Tielemans carries the 33rd-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Premier League of 55. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.32 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).

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 (~126), then tapers with age. At 29, Tielemans sits on 69.4, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Tielemans's projected Rating — 63.1 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.
