Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Sala.
Judged on this season alone, Sala graded 17 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 41st of 56 of the 56 defensive midfielders in the Serie B, on 0 goals, 2 assists and 3.783 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 7 → 17). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 47, 36th of 56 of the 56 defensive midfielders in the Serie B. At 27 Sala is in his prime years, and a market index of 51.2 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2020/21 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
3.78 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 13 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 46.5, Sala carries the 36th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Serie B of 56 — though on just 13 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.78 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.

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 (~51), then tapers with age. At 27, Sala sits on 51.2, at or near its peak. The blue line is Sala's projected Rating — 46.5 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.
