Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Álvarez.
Judged on this season alone, Álvarez graded 39 — an excellent campaign that ranks top 8% of the 67 central midfielders in the Ekstraklasa, on 7 goals, 3 assists and 2.059 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 30 → 39). Across the 4 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 30, 33rd of 67 of the 67 central midfielders in the Ekstraklasa. At 28 Álvarez is in his prime years, and a market index of 7.3 reflects that trajectory.
Álvarez is operating at his career peak — the 2025/26 level is the level.
2.06 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 31 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (14th 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 7 goals and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 30.3, Álvarez carries the 33rd-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Ekstraklasa of 67, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Widzew Łódź finished 14th 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 moderate defensive volume (2.06 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~12), then tapers with age. At 28, Álvarez sits on 7.3, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Álvarez's projected Rating — 30.3 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.
