Scout report

Solid contributorCentre-forward

Rafa Mir is a 29-year-old centre-forward at Elche, rated 54.6 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 246th of 389 on scout potential in the La Liga. An experienced operator, he has been a regular starter this season (69.7% of available minutes). He brings 0.46 goal contributions per 90 (0.46 goals, 0 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Mir.

Judged on this season alone, Mir graded 46 — a solid campaign that ranks top 39% of the 44 centre-forwards in the La Liga, on 11 goals and 0 assists in 32 appearances (0.464 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 10 → 46). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 55, 29th of 44 of the 44 centre-forwards in the La Liga. At 29 Mir is in his prime years, and a market index of 27.7 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Mir missed 4 games through injury (muscle, hamstring) out of roughly 38 this season. The 32 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.

Goals / app

11 goals in 32 appearances (0.34 per game) is double figures — and for a lower-table side (15th of 20), a real standout. Weaker sides create and score less, so carrying double-figure output there says more than the raw number alone.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 69.7% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Final-third output. 0.46 goal contributions per 90 (0.46 goals, 0 assists) — productive for the role.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 88.9/100).

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

With a Rating of 54.6, Mir carries the 29th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the La Liga of 44, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Elche finished 15th of 20) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.46 goal contributions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
