Miguel Baeza is a 26-year-old central midfielder at Nacional, rated 47.3 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 228th of 315 in the Primeira Liga. In his prime years, he has been a fringe squad member this season (27.3% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.22 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Baeza.
Judged on this season alone, Baeza graded 9 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 37th of 41 of the 41 central midfielders in the Primeira Liga, on 1 goal, 0 assists and 1.222 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 4 → 9). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 47, 32nd of 41 of the 41 central midfielders in the Primeira Liga. At 26 Baeza is in his prime years, and a market index of 50.1 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2022/23 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
1.22 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 14 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (14th of 18) 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 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 47.3, Baeza carries the 32nd-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Primeira Liga of 41 — though on just 14 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.22 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.

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 (~50), then tapers with age. At 26, Baeza sits on 50.1, at or near its peak. The blue line is Baeza's projected Rating — 47.3 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.
