Read the appearance count in context: Antônio missed 8 games through injury (hamstring, inactive, yellow cards) out of roughly 38 this season. The 28 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.
A career still climbing — Antônio is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
1.72 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 28 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 4 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 63.9, Antônio carries the 14th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Serie A (top 17%). Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.72 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 (~84), then tapers with age. At 26, Antônio sits on 84.3, at or near its peak. The blue line is Antônio's projected Rating — 63.9 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.
