João Aurélio is a 37-year-old full-back at Nacional, rated 10.1 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 315th of 317 in the Primeira Liga. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option this season (43.7% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 4.58 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Aurélio.
Judged on this season alone, Aurélio graded 20 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 38th of 55 of the 55 full-backs in the Primeira Liga, on 3 clean sheets and 4.581 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 6 → 20). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 10, 55th of 55 of the 55 full-backs in the Primeira Liga. At 37 Aurélio is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.6 reflects that trajectory.
Aurélio is operating at his career peak — the 2023/24 level is the level.
4.58 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 21 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (14th 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 10.1, Aurélio carries the 55th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Primeira Liga of 55, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Nacional finished 14th 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 (4.58 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.5× and falling).

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 (~6), then tapers with age. At 37, Aurélio sits on 1.6, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Aurélio's projected Rating — 10.1 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.
