Output in context · Boca Juniors finished 2nd of 15 · a title-challenging side
3.85 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 24 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 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 64% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Defensive volume. 3.85 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
- Ceiling. High potential at just 21 — 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
With a Rating of 54.9, Delgado carries the 2nd-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Liga Profesional Argentina (top 3%). Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.85 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 21, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
