On long-term talent our Rating reads 16, 28th of 29 of the 29 centre-forwards in the Primeira Liga. At 34 Oliveira is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 5.1 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2024/25 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
3 goals in 26 appearances (0.12 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.
With a Rating of 16.1, Oliveira carries the 28th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Primeira Liga of 29. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.21 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).

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 (~17), then tapers with age. At 34, Oliveira sits on 5.1, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Oliveira's projected Rating — 16.1 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.
