Clean sheets

2.85 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 29 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st of 22) 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 2 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.16 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 59.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 58.7, Mantilla carries the 31st-highest potential of the full-backs in the Segunda División (top 36%). Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.85 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
