On long-term talent our Rating reads 38, 72nd of 90 of the 90 central midfielders in the Segunda División. At 30 Villares is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 22.5 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2024/25 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
4.31 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 36 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 22) 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 2 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 38.1, Villares carries the 72nd-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Segunda División of 90. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.31 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).

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 (~45), then tapers with age. At 30, Villares sits on 22.5, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Villares's projected Rating — 38.1 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.
