  • Game time. Only 24.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 24.8, Fernando carries the 34th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Premier League of 51 — though on just 20 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.27 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
