On long-term talent our Rating reads 36, top 32% of the 127 centre-backs in the Major League Soccer. At 24 Bonetig is in his prime years, and a market index of 6.8 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2025/26 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Portland Timbers finished 11th of 15 · a lower-table side
3.52 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume across 8 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (11th of 15) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 3.52 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 24.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 36.3, Bonetig carries the 40th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Major League Soccer of 127 — though on just 8 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.52 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
