Scout report
Lucas Vázquez is a 35-year-old attacking midfielder at Bayer Leverkusen, rated 17.4 overall by Field Insider's model. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (27.7% of available minutes). He brings 0.54 goal contributions per 90 (0.18 goals, 0.36 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Vázquez.
On the season, Vázquez graded 17 for current form (age-blind), on 1 goal and 2 assists in 12 appearances (0.541 involvements per 90).
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 45 → 17). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2024/25.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 17. At 35 Vázquez is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 5 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Vázquez missed 14 games through injury (calf, muscle) out of roughly 34 this season. The 12 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.
Past his 2024/25 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Bayer Leverkusen finished 6th of 18 · an upper-table side
1 goal in 12 appearances (0.08 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 2 assists for 3 goal contributions in all.
Strengths
- Final-third output. 0.54 goal contributions per 90 (0.18 goals, 0.36 assists) — productive for the role.
- Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 88.3/100).
Watch points
- Game time. Only 27.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 35, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 17.4 overall — below regular-starter level. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.54 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
