C. Montaño is a 34-year-old full-back at Livingston, rated 12.6 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 213th of 219 in the Championship. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option this season (51.4% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.38 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Montaño.
Judged on this season alone, Montaño graded 12 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 33rd of 41 of the 41 full-backs in the Championship, on 2 clean sheets and 3.377 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 9 → 12). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 13, 40th of 41 of the 41 full-backs in the Championship. At 34 Montaño is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.3 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2022/23 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
3.38 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 26 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (12th of 12) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 12.6, Montaño carries the 40th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Championship of 41, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Livingston finished 12th of 12) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.38 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× 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 (~8), then tapers with age. At 34, Montaño sits on 2.3, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Montaño's projected Rating — 12.6 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.
