Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 77.1% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Final-third output. 0.4 goal contributions per 90 (0.27 goals, 0.13 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.61 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
  • Age curve. At 35, 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 9.2, Aquino carries the 20th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Primera División of 24. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.4 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
