J. Güémez is a 35-year-old attacking midfielder at Santos Laguna, rated 16.5 overall by Field Insider's model. A seasoned veteran, he has been a regular starter this season (76.9% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Güémez.

On the season, Güémez graded 6 for current form (age-blind), on 0 goals and 1 assist in 31 appearances (0.038 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 27 → 27). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 17. At 35 Güémez is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.3 reflects that trajectory.

0 goals in 31 appearances (0 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 1 assist for 1 goal contributions in all.

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

  • Output. 0.04 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
  • Age curve. At 35, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 16.5 overall — below regular-starter level. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.04 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
