Clean sheets

2.67 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 9 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (15th of 16) 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.

Outlook

With a Rating of 28.2, Barros carries the 17th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the 1. Division of 32 — though on just 9 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.67 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

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 (~3), then tapers with age. At 25, Barros sits on 3.2, at or near its peak. The blue line is Barros's projected Rating — 28.2 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.
