In his prime years, he has been a rotation option this season (59.2% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.34 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Orellano.
Judged on this season alone, Orellano graded 26 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 30th of 51 of the 51 attacking midfielders in the Liga MX, on 2 goals, 5 assists and 1.335 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 41 → 26). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2024/25.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 38, 26th of 51 of the 51 attacking midfielders in the Liga MX. At 26 Orellano is in his prime years, and a market index of 8 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Orellano missed 3 games through injury (leg, ankle) out of roughly 38 this season. The 28 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.
Below his 2024/25 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.

Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.31 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 59.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Defensive numbers. Modest 1.34 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 38.1, Orellano carries the 26th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Liga MX of 51. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.34 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
