Clean sheets

1.83 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 13 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.24 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 20 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 24.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 59.4, Cantero carries the 8th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Ligue 2 of 50 — though on just 13 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.83 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 20 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (98/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 20, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
