1 goal in 14 appearances (0.07 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. He also laid on 6 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 7 goal contributions (0.5 per appearance).

Strengths

Availability. On the pitch for 60.2% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Final-third output. 0.55 goal contributions per 90 (0.08 goals, 0.48 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

Defensive numbers. Modest 1.43 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
Age curve. At 39, 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 9.6, Moralez carries the 39th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Major League Soccer of 39 — though on just 14 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.55 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.5× and falling).

The blue line is Moralez's projected Rating — 9.6 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.
