Scout report
Raphael Veiga is a 31-year-old attacking midfielder at Palmeiras, rated 30.6 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 300th of 340 on scout potential in the Liga MX. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (31.8% of available minutes). He brings 0.5 goal contributions per 90 (0.17 goals, 0.33 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Veiga.
Judged on this season alone, Veiga graded 17 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 8th of 13 of the 13 wingers in the Liga MX, on 2 goals and 4 assists in 25 appearances (0.497 involvements per 90).
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 45 → 17). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 31, 13th of 13 of the 13 wingers in the Liga MX. At 31 Veiga is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 6.5 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Veiga missed 7 games through injury (shoulder, pubis bone contusion, injury) out of roughly 38 this season. The 25 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.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Palmeiras finished 2nd of 20 · a title-challenging side
2 goals in 25 appearances (0.08 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. He also laid on 4 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 6 goal contributions (0.24 per appearance).
Strengths
- Final-third output. 0.5 goal contributions per 90 (0.17 goals, 0.33 assists) — productive for the role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 31.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 31, 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 30.6, Veiga carries the 13th-highest potential of the wingers in the Liga MX of 13. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.5 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
