Interceptions

Clean sheets

0.37 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume across 11 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (6th of 20) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.25 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
Ceiling. High potential at just 18 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

Game time. Only 35.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Defensive numbers. Modest 0.37 defensive actions per 90 for the position.

Outlook

Rated 68.7 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (0.37 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. At 18 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (100/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 18, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

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 (~33), then tapers with age. At 18, Índio sits on 24.5, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Índio's projected Rating — 68.7 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.
