Output in context · Fortaleza FC finished 6th of 20 · an upper-table side
3.26 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 17 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (6th 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.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 17.3% 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 24, Barrera carries the 22nd-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Primera A of 81 — though on just 17 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.26 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
