Lucas Áfrico is a 31-year-old central defender at Vanspor FK, rated 17.8 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 619th of 728 in the 1. Lig. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (24.1% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.08 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Áfrico.
Judged on this season alone, Áfrico graded 6 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 124th of 133 of the 133 centre-backs in the 1. Lig, on 2 clean sheets and 2.078 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 18 → 6). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 18, 108th of 133 of the 133 centre-backs in the 1. Lig. At 31 Áfrico is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 5.1 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2020/21 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
2.08 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 11 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (14th of 20) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight.
With a Rating of 17.8, Áfrico carries the 108th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the 1. Lig of 133 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.08 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).

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 (~11), then tapers with age. At 31, Áfrico sits on 5.1, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Áfrico's projected Rating — 17.8 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.
