On long-term talent our Rating reads 6, 94th of 96 of the 96 central midfielders in the Primera A. At 33 Balanta is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.4 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2021/22 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
2.58 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 12 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 6.2, Balanta carries the 94th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Primera A of 96 — though on just 12 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.58 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× 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 22–27 (~1), then tapers with age. At 33, Balanta sits on 0.4, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Balanta's projected Rating — 6.2 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.
