D. Valencia is a 26-year-old centre-forward at U. Catolica, rated 22.6 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 42nd of 278 on scout potential in the Primera División. In his prime years, he has been a rotation option this season (52.3% of available minutes). He brings 0.38 goal contributions per 90 (0.26 goals, 0.13 assists).
