Scout report

On long-term scout potential he's rated 43.8, ranking 24th of 56 in the Liga MX. In his prime years, he has been an ever-present (90% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.81 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Farfan.
Judged on this season alone, Farfan graded 44 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 7th of 12 of the 12 central midfielders in the Liga MX, on 2 goals, 1 assist and 2.81 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 22 → 18). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 44, 9th of 12 of the 12 central midfielders in the Liga MX. At 27 Farfan is in his prime years, and a market index of 18.8 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2022/23 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Tigres UANL finished 15th of 18 · a lower-table side
2.81 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 16 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (15th of 18) 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. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 90% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.2 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
Watch points
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 43.8, Farfan carries the 9th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Liga MX of 12, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Tigres UANL finished 15th of 18) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.81 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
