J. Cuadrado is a 38-year-old defensive midfielder at Pisa, enjoying a standout season — 1 goals and 0 assists in 19 appearances, a Season grade of 14. On long-term scout potential he's rated 8. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member (21.4% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 4.31 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Cuadrado.

On the season, Cuadrado graded 14 for current form (age-blind), on 1 goal, 0 assists and 4.311 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 14 → 14). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 8. At 38 Cuadrado is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.1 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Cuadrado missed 12 games through injury (muscle, thigh, stomach disorder) out of roughly 38 this season. The 19 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.

Clean sheets

4.31 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 19 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (20th 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 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.18 goal involvements per 90, useful for a defensive midfielder.
  • Defensive volume. 4.31 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 21.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 38, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 8 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.31 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.5× and falling).
