Output in context · Zaragoza finished 22nd of 22 · a relegation-threatened side
2.27 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 15 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (22nd of 22) 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 0 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.3 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
- Creativity. 0.3 assists per 90 — a genuine creative outlet.
- Ceiling. High potential at just 20 — room to grow into a bigger role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 15.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
Rated 56.1 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.27 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. At 20 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (98/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 20, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
