Scout report

Experienced headGoal-getting Attacking midfielder

B. Acosta is a 32-year-old attacking midfielder at Nashville SC, enjoying a standout season — 3 goals and 1 assists in 15 appearances, a Season grade of 16, top 79% of Major League Soccer attacking midfielders. On long-term scout potential he's rated 15.6, ranking 433rd of 481 in the Major League Soccer. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member (28.4% of available minutes). He brings 0.56 goal contributions per 90 (0.42 goals, 0.14 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Acosta.

Judged on this season alone, Acosta graded 16 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 31st of 39 of the 39 attacking midfielders in the Major League Soccer, on 3 goals and 1 assist in 15 appearances (0.563 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 4 → 16). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 16, 35th of 39 of the 39 attacking midfielders in the Major League Soccer. At 32 Acosta is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.9 reflects that trajectory.

3 goals in 15 appearances (0.2 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 1 assist for 4 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.56 goal contributions per 90 (0.42 goals, 0.14 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 28.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 32, 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 15.6, Acosta carries the 35th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Major League Soccer of 39 — though on just 15 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.56 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
