Output in context · Cruz Azul finished 3rd of 18 · an upper-table side
3.1 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 37 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 18) 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 6 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.27 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
Rated 46.7 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.1 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.
