Clean sheets

6.22 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 28 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 22) 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.

Strengths

Defensive volume. 6.22 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

Game time. Only 19.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 57.7 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (6.22 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 23, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around age 23 (~25), then tapers with age. At 23, Patino sits on 24.5, at or near its peak. The blue line is Patino's projected Rating — 57.7 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.
