Scout report
N. Tenaglia is a 30-year-old full-back at Alaves, rated 51.2 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 68th of 109 on scout potential in the La Liga. An experienced operator, he has been an ever-present this season (94.7% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.95 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Tenaglia.
Judged on this season alone, Tenaglia graded 35 — a strong campaign that ranks top 19% of the 22 full-backs in the La Liga, on 5 clean sheets and 3.946 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 35 → 35). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 51, 16th of 22 of the 22 full-backs in the La Liga. At 30 Tenaglia is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 19 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2022/23 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Alaves finished 14th of 20 · a lower-table side
3.95 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 36 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (14th of 20) 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 2 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 94.7% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Defensive volume. 3.95 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
- Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 89.4/100).
Watch points
- Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.
Outlook
With a Rating of 51.2, Tenaglia carries the 16th-highest potential of the full-backs in the La Liga of 22, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Alaves finished 14th of 20) — 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 (3.95 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
