Strengths
- Final-third output. 0.48 goal contributions per 90 (0.48 goals, 0 assists) — productive for the role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 41.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 33, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 12.8, Acosta carries the 54th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Primera Nacional of 76 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.48 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).
