For the past several games, Glasgow Rangers’ defense has been a cause for concern. Before keeping a clean sheet in the match against Dundee, giving up three goals to Celtic and Ross County.

John Souttar is the only one who truly received passing grades. Who, since being a consistent starter in the beginning lineup, has been remarkable.

When the defender’s Hearts contract expired in 2022, he joined on a free transfer. Despite going through a difficult first campaign in which an ankle injury hindered his development. This term, Souttar has responded wonderfully.

In the Premiership, the Scot is fourth among his colleagues in terms of accurate passes made per game (59.3). while coming in third place with 4.3 accurate long balls per game.

In terms of interceptions per game (one) and clearances per game (3.5), it ranks second. demonstrating his increased importance as a player under Philippe Clement.

His physicality is his greatest asset. It guarantees that in his one-on-one confrontations, he frequently emerges victorious. In fact, in the top level, Souttar wins 5.9 total duels per game. A 72% success rate, indicating that he is a bother to adversarial attackers.

He’s only 27 years old and just entering his prime. Presently valued at €2.50 million (£2.1 million) on the market. With the player they acquired for nothing less than two years. The Light Blues may turn a healthy profit.
