Scout report

Squad depthFull-back

Dani Tasende is a 26-year-old full-back at Zaragoza, rated 51.8 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 262nd of 452 on scout potential in the Segunda División. In his prime years, he has been a rotation option this season (42.3% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.8 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Tasende.

Judged on this season alone, Tasende graded 16 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 58th of 88 of the 88 full-backs in the Segunda División, on 3 clean sheets and 3.797 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 19 → 16). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 52, 51st of 88 of the 88 full-backs in the Segunda División. At 26 Tasende is in his prime years, and a market index of 22 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Tasende missed 4 games through injury (wound) out of roughly 42 this season. The 31 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.

Clean sheets

3.8 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 31 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (22nd of 22) 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 0 goals and 4 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.25 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
  • Defensive volume. 3.8 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 42.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 51.8, Tasende carries the 51st-highest potential of the full-backs in the Segunda División of 88, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Zaragoza finished 22nd of 22) — 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 solid defensive volume (3.8 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.
