J. Rivas is a 23-year-old central defender at Puebla, rated 42.7 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 131st of 337 in the Liga MX. An emerging talent, he has been a fringe squad member this season (31.7% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.87 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Rivas.
Judged on this season alone, Rivas graded 9 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 58th of 64 of the 64 centre-backs in the Liga MX, on 2 clean sheets and 2.873 defensive actions per 90.
We hold a single season for Rivas, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 43, top 40% of the 64 centre-backs in the Liga MX. At 23 Rivas is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 30.7 reflects that trajectory.
2.87 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 15 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (17th 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.
With a Rating of 42.7, Rivas carries the 25th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Liga MX (top 40%), and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Puebla finished 17th 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 moderate defensive volume (2.87 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.

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 (~31), then tapers with age. At 23, Rivas sits on 30.7, at or near its peak. The blue line is Rivas's projected Rating — 42.7 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.
