Cuyper's 2025/26 season, read from the numbers

In 2025/26, M. De Cuyper moved in and out of the side for Brighton in the Premier League: 30 appearances and 1443 minutes, averaging 48 minutes per outing. Per 90 minutes that is 1.4 tackles per 90, 0.7 interceptions per 90 and 48% of his duels won — the rate profile behind Cuyper's totals.

Cuyper played 689 passes at 84% accuracy — 43.0 per 90, which is the volume that decides whether a side builds through him or around him. Set against Cuyper's own record, 2025/26 reads differently: it is also the heaviest workload we have recorded for him, 1443 minutes against a previous high of 425.

How these scores are built, and the minutes and rating floors a player must clear to appear on our boards, are set out in our methodology.
