Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Blanco.

On the season, Blanco graded 40 for current form (age-blind), on 10 clean sheets and 2.549 defensive actions per 90.

Clean sheets

2.55 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 10 clean sheets across 32 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 15) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 5 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 85.6% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.21 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 22 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

Rated 58.2 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.55 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.
