Scout report
F. Almada is a 28-year-old central defender at Mazatlán, rated 40.3 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 49th of 99 on scout potential in the Liga MX. An experienced operator, he has been an ever-present this season (100% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.53 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Almada.
Judged on this season alone, Almada graded 20 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 16th of 23 of the 23 centre-backs in the Liga MX, on 2 clean sheets and 3.533 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 20 → 20). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 40, 13th of 23 of the 23 centre-backs in the Liga MX. At 28 Almada is in his prime years, and a market index of 6.3 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2023/24 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Mazatlán finished 16th of 18 · a relegation-threatened side
3.53 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 34 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (16th of 18) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 6 goals and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 100% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.26 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.
- Defensive volume. 3.53 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 40.3, Almada carries the 13th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Liga MX of 23, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Mazatlán finished 16th of 18) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.53 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
