On long-term scout potential he's rated 23, ranking 111th of 128 in the Segunda División. A seasoned veteran, he has been a regular starter (62.5% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 4.65 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Carcelén.

Judged on this season alone, Carcelén graded 35 — an excellent campaign that ranks top 10% of the 22 full-backs in the Segunda División, on 7 clean sheets and 4.647 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 32 → 35). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 23, 21st of 22 of the 22 full-backs in the Segunda División. At 33 Carcelén is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 5.7 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

4.65 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 30 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (18th 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 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 62.5% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Defensive volume. 4.65 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Age curve. At 33, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 23, Carcelén carries the 21st-highest potential of the full-backs in the Segunda División of 22, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Cadiz finished 18th of 22) — 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 (4.65 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).
