Squad depthGoalkeeper

L. Malagón is a 29-year-old goalkeeper at Club America, rated 26.6 overall by Field Insider's model. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (11.8% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Malagón.

On the season, Malagón graded 9 for current form (age-blind), on 1 clean sheet across 2 appearances.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 21 → 9). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 27. At 29 Malagón is in his prime years, and a market index of 3.8 reflects that trajectory.

Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.

1 clean sheet in 2 appearances (50% of games). Playing behind a title-challenging side (1st of 18) means a more protected goal, so the read is about command and distribution as much as raw shut-outs.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 11.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 26.6 overall — below regular-starter level. A limited game time keeper carrying the gloves this season. Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
