Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 19 → 13). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 12. At 33 Rubio is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.2 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Rubio missed 5 games through injury (hamstring) out of roughly 36 this season. The 25 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.
Below his 2022/23 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
2 goals in 25 appearances (0.08 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 2 assists for 4 goal contributions in all.
Rated 12.2 overall — below regular-starter level. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.38 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× 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 (~6), then tapers with age. At 33, Rubio sits on 2.2, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Rubio's projected Rating — 12.2 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.
