Past his 2024/25 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Real Sociedad II finished 19th of 22 · a lower-table side
3.78 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 30 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (19th of 22) 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 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 82% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.16 goal involvements per 90, useful for a defensive midfielder.
- Defensive volume. 3.78 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
- Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 91.4/100).
Watch points
- Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.
Outlook
With a Rating of 84.4, Gorrotxategi carries the 1st-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Segunda División (top 7%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Real Sociedad II finished 19th of 22) — 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 (3.78 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.
