Squad depthBall-winning Defensive midfielder

C. Graciano is a 23-year-old defensive midfielder at Deportivo Cali, rated 22.8 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 114th of 421 on scout potential in the Primera A. An emerging talent, he has been a fringe squad member this season (21.1% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 5.7 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Graciano.

Judged on this season alone, Graciano graded 7 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 23rd of 28 of the 28 defensive midfielders in the Primera A, on 0 goals, 0 assists and 5.699 defensive actions per 90.

We hold a single season for Graciano, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 23, top 25% of the 28 defensive midfielders in the Primera A. At 23 Graciano is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 1.6 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

5.7 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 23 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (14th of 20) 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.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 5.7 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 21.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 22.8, Graciano carries the 7th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Primera A of 28 — though on just 23 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5.7 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
