Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Parejo.
Judged on this season alone, Parejo graded 21 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 50th of 73 of the 73 central midfielders in the La Liga, on 1 goal, 0 assists and 3.927 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 42 → 21). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 13, 73rd of 73 of the 73 central midfielders in the La Liga. At 37 Parejo is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 6.2 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2020/21 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
3.93 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 32 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 20) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 13.4, Parejo carries the 73rd-highest potential of the central midfielders in the La Liga of 73. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.93 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.5× 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 (~25), then tapers with age. At 37, Parejo sits on 6.2, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Parejo's projected Rating — 13.4 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.
