Ivan Cavaleiro is a 32-year-old attacking midfielder at FC Zurich, rated 14.2 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 222nd of 232 in the Super League. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (26% of available minutes). He brings 0.41 goal contributions per 90 (0.3 goals, 0.1 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Cavaleiro.
Judged on this season alone, Cavaleiro graded 11 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 41st of 44 of the 44 attacking midfielders in the Super League, on 3 goals and 1 assist in 13 appearances (0.405 involvements per 90).
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 9 → 11). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 14, 42nd of 44 of the 44 attacking midfielders in the Super League. At 32 Cavaleiro is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 3.1 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2022/23 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
3 goals in 13 appearances (0.23 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 1 assist for 4 goal contributions in all.
With a Rating of 14.2, Cavaleiro carries the 42nd-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Super League of 44 — though on just 13 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.41 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
Generated from Field Insider's rating model · AI-written analysis to follow.
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 (~8), then tapers with age. At 32, Cavaleiro sits on 3.1, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Cavaleiro's projected Rating — 14.2 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.
