Clean sheets

7.4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 20 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.32 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
Defensive volume. 7.4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Ceiling. High potential at just 22 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

Game time. Only 27.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 66.6 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (7.4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 22, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

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 (~31), then tapers with age. At 22, Chávez sits on 29.2, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Chávez's projected Rating — 66.6 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.
