Clean sheets

3.53 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 25 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 3.53 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 36.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 31, 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 17.7, Bronico carries the 40th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Major League Soccer of 45. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.53 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
