Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 29 → 7).
On long-term talent our Rating reads 52. At 26 Sánchez is in his prime years, and a market index of 21.9 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2024/25 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Malaga finished 4th of 22 · an upper-table side
2.75 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 15 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th of 22) 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 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 16.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
Rated 51.6 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.75 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
