Project playerBall-winning Defensive midfielder

I. Gómez is a 29-year-old defensive midfielder at Platense, rated 32.3 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 377th of 553 on scout potential in the Liga Profesional Argentina. An experienced operator, he has been a regular starter this season (66.6% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 4.68 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Gómez.

Judged on this season alone, Gómez graded 22 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 57th of 73 of the 73 defensive midfielders in the Liga Profesional Argentina, on 0 goals, 0 assists and 4.681 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 30 → 22). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 32, 55th of 73 of the 73 defensive midfielders in the Liga Profesional Argentina. At 29 Gómez is in his prime years, and a market index of 5.3 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

4.68 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 17 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (12th of 15) 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.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 66.6% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Defensive volume. 4.68 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 32.3, Gómez carries the 55th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Liga Profesional Argentina of 73, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Platense finished 12th of 15) — 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 (4.68 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
