Strengths
- Defensive volume. 3.94 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 33.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
With a Rating of 61.3, Duñabeitia carries the 17th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Segunda División of 40 — though on just 8 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.94 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 23, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
