Clean sheets

1.4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume across 8 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (13th 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. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 23.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 16.3, Fernández carries the 21st-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Primera División of 49 — though on just 8 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
