Scout report

Delgado is a 36-year-old full-back at Defensa Y Justicia, enjoying a standout season — 2 goals and 0 assists in 21 appearances, a Season grade of 25, top 63% of Liga Profesional Argentina full-backs. On long-term scout potential he's rated 15, ranking 499th of 557 in the Liga Profesional Argentina. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option (59.7% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.61 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Delgado.
Judged on this season alone, Delgado graded 25 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 61st of 97 of the 97 full-backs in the Liga Profesional Argentina, on 5 clean sheets and 3.613 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 28 → 25). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 15, 92nd of 97 of the 97 full-backs in the Liga Profesional Argentina. At 36 Delgado is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2020/21 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Defensa Y Justicia finished 12th of 15 · a lower-table side
3.61 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 21 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (12th of 15) 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 2 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 3.61 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 59.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 36, 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 15, Delgado carries the 92nd-highest potential of the full-backs in the Liga Profesional Argentina of 97, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Defensa Y Justicia finished 12th of 15) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.61 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
