Rated 50.1 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.74 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90).

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 (~53), then tapers with age. At 22, Santiago sits on 50.5, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Santiago's projected Rating — 50.1 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.
