On long-term talent our Rating reads 27, top 8% of the 96 central midfielders in the Primera A. At 22 Arias is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 5.1 reflects that trajectory.
2.13 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 29 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 20) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 26.8, Arias carries the 7th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Primera A (top 8%).

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~5), then tapers with age. At 22, Arias sits on 5.1, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Arias's projected Rating — 26.8 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.
