On long-term talent our Rating reads 27, 144th of 251 of the 251 centre-backs in the Primera Nacional. At 31 Villalba is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 8.9 reflects that trajectory.
Villalba is operating at his career peak — the 2024/25 level is the level.
2.93 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 10 clean sheets across 28 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (14th 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. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 26.7, Villalba carries the 144th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Primera Nacional of 251, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Independ. Rivadavia finished 14th 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 moderate defensive volume (2.93 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).

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 (~20), then tapers with age. At 31, Villalba sits on 8.9, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Villalba's projected Rating — 26.7 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.
