An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (22.7% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 4.99 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Braida.
Judged on this season alone, Braida graded 8 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 70th of 73 of the 73 defensive midfielders in the Liga Profesional Argentina, on 0 goals, 0 assists and 4.992 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 26 → 8). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2024/25.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 28, 56th of 73 of the 73 defensive midfielders in the Liga Profesional Argentina. At 29 Braida is in his prime years, and a market index of 4.1 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2024/25 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Boca Juniors finished 2nd of 15 · a title-challenging side
4.99 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 8 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 15) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 4.99 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 22.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 28.1, Braida carries the 56th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Liga Profesional Argentina of 73 — though on just 8 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.99 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
