On long-term talent our Rating reads 11, 54th of 54 of the 54 centre-forwards in the Liga Profesional Argentina. At 34 Herrera is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.4 reflects that trajectory.

1 goal in 19 appearances (0.05 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 28.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Output. 0.25 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
  • Age curve. At 34, 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 11.3, Herrera carries the 54th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Liga Profesional Argentina of 54. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.25 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
