Output in context · Boca Juniors finished 2nd of 15 · a title-challenging side
3.1 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 19 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 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 67.2% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.32 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
Watch points
- 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 25.7, Paredes carries the 76th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Liga Profesional Argentina of 96. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.1 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).
