Clean sheets

4.14 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 20 appearances.

Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

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 (~41), then tapers with age. At 24, Fernández sits on 40.8, at or near its peak. The blue line is Fernández's projected Rating — 68.2 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.
