Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 50 → 53). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 30, 38th of 44 of the 44 centre-forwards in the La Liga. At 33 Iglesias is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 11.7 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2022/23 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.

Watch points
- Game time. Only 58.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 33, both level and resale value are on the downslope.

Outlook
With a Rating of 30.3, Iglesias carries the 38th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the La Liga of 44. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.76 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).
