3 clean sheets in 15 appearances (20% of games). Keeping that many behind a lower-table side (11th of 14) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.

Outlook

With a Rating of 16.6, Chaves carries the 7th-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the Super League 1 of 9, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Panetolikos finished 11th of 14) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. A rotation minutes keeper carrying the gloves this season. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

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 (~3), then tapers with age. At 31, Chaves sits on 1.2, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Chaves's projected Rating — 16.6 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.
