A career still climbing — Cándido is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
2.52 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 11 clean sheets across 40 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 20) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 5 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 14.6, Cándido carries the 47th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Primera A of 63. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.52 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).

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 (~3), then tapers with age. At 31, Cándido sits on 1.3, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Cándido's projected Rating — 14.6 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.
