Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Zapata.
Judged on this season alone, Zapata graded 19 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 36th of 48 of the 48 centre-forwards in the Serie A, on 3 goals and 1 assist in 28 appearances (0.32 involvements per 90).
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 12 → 19). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 19, 48th of 48 of the 48 centre-forwards in the Serie A. At 35 Zapata is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 5.9 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Zapata missed 4 games through injury (thigh, muscle) out of roughly 38 this season. The 28 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 2020/21 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
3 goals in 28 appearances (0.11 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 1 assist for 4 goal contributions in all.
With a Rating of 18.9, Zapata carries the 48th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Serie A of 48. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.32 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× 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 (~20), then tapers with age. At 35, Zapata sits on 5.9, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Zapata's projected Rating — 18.9 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.
