Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Castillo.
Judged on this season alone, Castillo graded 42 — an excellent campaign that ranks top 14% of the 36 defensive midfielders in the 1. Division, on 4 goals, 4 assists and 3.026 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 7 → 42). Across the 3 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 49, top 6% of the 36 defensive midfielders in the 1. Division. At 22 Castillo is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 24.4 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Castillo missed 5 games through injury (injury, inactive, yellow cards) out of roughly 32 this season. The 26 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.
A career still climbing — Castillo is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
3.03 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 26 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 6) 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 4 goals and 4 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 49.4, Castillo carries the 2nd-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the 1. Division (top 6%). Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.03 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 22, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.

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 (~26), then tapers with age. At 22, Castillo sits on 24.4, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Castillo's projected Rating — 49.4 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.
