1 goal in 37 appearances (0.03 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. He also laid on 3 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 4 goal contributions (0.11 per appearance).

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 65.1% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Defensive volume. 3.66 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Output. 0.15 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.

Outlook

With a Rating of 60.9, Ponceau carries the 4th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Segunda División (top 37%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Valladolid finished 17th of 22) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.15 goal contributions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.
