Judged on this season alone, Bahia graded 37 — a solid campaign that ranks top 32% of the 70 full-backs in the Serie A, on 8 clean sheets and 2.829 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 6 → 37). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 62, top 32% of the 70 full-backs in the Serie A. At 26 Bahia is in his prime years, and a market index of 81.2 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Bahia missed 5 games through injury (inactive, loan agreement, 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.
Past his 2021/22 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
2.83 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 28 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (17th of 20) 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 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 61.5, Bahia carries the 22nd-highest potential of the full-backs in the Serie A (top 32%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Ceara finished 17th of 20) — 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 moderate defensive volume (2.83 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.

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 (~81), then tapers with age. At 26, Bahia sits on 81.2, at or near its peak. The blue line is Bahia's projected Rating — 61.5 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.
