On long-term talent our Rating reads 17, 30th of 30 of the 30 defensive midfielders in the Liga MX. At 34 Güémez is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.2 reflects that trajectory.
Output in context · Santos Laguna finished 18th of 18 · a relegation-threatened side
3.9 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 31 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (18th of 18) 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 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 76.9% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Defensive volume. 3.9 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Age curve. At 34, 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 16.7, Güémez carries the 30th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Liga MX of 30, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Santos Laguna finished 18th of 18) — 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 (3.9 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
