Scout report

Experienced headAttacking midfielder

Arsénio is a 36-year-old attacking midfielder at Lusitânia Lourosa, enjoying a standout season — 2 goals and 2 assists in 10 appearances, a Season grade of 12, top 50% of Segunda Liga attacking midfielders. On long-term scout potential he's rated 10.6, ranking 100th of 112 in the Segunda Liga. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member (25.8% of available minutes). He brings 0.46 goal contributions per 90 (0.23 goals, 0.23 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Arsénio.

Judged on this season alone, Arsénio graded 12 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 2nd of 4 of the 4 attacking midfielders in the Segunda Liga, on 2 goals and 2 assists in 10 appearances (0.457 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 0 → 12). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 11, 4th of 4 of the 4 attacking midfielders in the Segunda Liga. At 36 Arsénio is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.3 reflects that trajectory.

2 goals in 10 appearances (0.2 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 2 assists for 4 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.46 goal contributions per 90 (0.23 goals, 0.23 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 25.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 36, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 10.6, Arsénio carries the 4th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Segunda Liga of 4 — though on just 10 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.46 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
