On long-term talent our Rating reads 25, 70th of 89 of the 89 central midfielders in the Liga Profesional Argentina. At 32 Paredes is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 4.4 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2023/24 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Boca Juniors finished 2nd of 15 · a title-challenging side
3.17 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 23 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 15) 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 2 goals and 4 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.33 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 59.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 32, 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 24.5, Paredes carries the 70th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Liga Profesional Argentina of 89. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.17 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
