Clean sheets

3.1 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 9 clean sheets across 29 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (18th of 20) 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 2 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 71.8% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • 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 8.7, Moya carries the 69th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Primera A of 88, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Deportivo Pereira finished 18th of 20) — 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 moderate defensive volume (3.1 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
