Bruno Pacheco is a 34-year-old full-back at Fortaleza EC, rated 17.8 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 388th of 427 in the Serie A. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option this season (49.6% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.2 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Pacheco.
Judged on this season alone, Pacheco graded 23 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 45th of 70 of the 70 full-backs in the Serie A, on 4 clean sheets and 3.197 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 22 → 23). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 18, 67th of 70 of the 70 full-backs in the Serie A. At 34 Pacheco is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 7 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Pacheco missed 9 games through injury (injury, tendonitis, inactive) out of roughly 38 this season. The 16 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
Past his 2021/22 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
3.2 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 16 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (18th of 20) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 17.8, Pacheco carries the 67th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Serie A of 70, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Fortaleza EC finished 18th of 20) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.2 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
Generated from Field Insider's rating model · AI-written analysis to follow.
The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~24), then tapers with age. At 34, Pacheco sits on 7, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Pacheco's projected Rating — 17.8 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
