Judged on this season alone, Goitía graded 21 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 46th of 72 of the 72 defensive midfielders in the Liga Profesional Argentina, on 0 goals, 1 assist and 3.966 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 67 → 21). Over the 3 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2025/26.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 20, 63rd of 72 of the 72 defensive midfielders in the Liga Profesional Argentina. At 32 Goitía is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 3.5 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2025/26 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Deportivo Riestra finished 15th of 15 · a relegation-threatened side
3.97 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 22 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (15th of 15) 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 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 3.97 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 52.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 32, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 19.5, Goitía carries the 63rd-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Liga Profesional Argentina of 72, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Deportivo Riestra finished 15th of 15) — 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 (3.97 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
