1 goal in 25 appearances (0.04 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. He also laid on 6 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 7 goal contributions (0.28 per appearance).

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.39 goal contributions per 90 (0.1 goals, 0.29 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 53.7% 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 16.7, Mantilla carries the 23rd-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Primera A of 31, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Deportivo Cali finished 14th of 20) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.39 goal contributions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
