Goals / app

2 goals in 23 appearances (0.09 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 1 assist for 3 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 67% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Defensive volume. 3.58 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Output. 0.15 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
  • Age curve. At 31, 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 12.6, Cuevas carries the 25th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Primera División of 32. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.15 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
