Outlook

With a Rating of 18.9, Kakay carries the 15th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Super Liga of 25 — though on just 29 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.24 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).

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 (~2), then tapers with age. At 29, Kakay sits on 1.2, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Kakay's projected Rating — 18.9 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.
