We hold a single season for Ríos, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 9, 27th of 29 of the 29 defensive midfielders in the Primera A. At 34 Ríos is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.3 reflects that trajectory.
3.67 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 30 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 1 goal and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 8.5, Ríos carries the 27th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Primera A of 29, 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 solid defensive volume (3.67 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
Generated from Field Insider's rating model · AI-written analysis to follow.
The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 22–27 (~1), then tapers with age. At 34, Ríos sits on 0.3, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Ríos's projected Rating — 8.5 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
