Diego Llorente is a 32-year-old central defender at Real Betis, rated 32 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 343rd of 389 in the La Liga. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option this season (47% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 4.77 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Llorente.
Judged on this season alone, Llorente graded 31 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 33rd of 75 of the 75 centre-backs in the La Liga, on 4 clean sheets and 4.772 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 29 → 31). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 32, 64th of 75 of the 75 centre-backs in the La Liga. At 32 Llorente is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 23.6 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Llorente missed 9 games through injury (injured doubtful, muscle, contusion) out of roughly 38 this season. The 18 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.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
4.77 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 18 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th 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 32, Llorente carries the 64th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the La Liga of 75. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.77 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× 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 (~59), then tapers with age. At 32, Llorente sits on 23.6, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Llorente's projected Rating — 32 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.
