Squad depthCentral midfielder

Marcos Cuenca is a 23-year-old central midfielder at Zaragoza, rated 57.4 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 194th of 452 on scout potential in the Segunda División. An emerging talent, he has been a rotation option this season (37.1% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.67 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Cuenca.

Judged on this season alone, Cuenca graded 16 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 63rd of 91 of the 91 central midfielders in the Segunda División, on 1 goal, 2 assists and 1.669 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 0 → 16). Across the 3 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 57, 37th of 91 of the 91 central midfielders in the Segunda División. At 23 Cuenca is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 24.4 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

1.67 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 29 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (22nd of 22) 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 1 goal and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.19 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 37.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.67 defensive actions per 90 for the position.

Outlook

With a Rating of 57.4, Cuenca carries the 37th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Segunda División of 91, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Zaragoza finished 22nd of 22) — 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 light defensive volume (1.67 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 23, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
