Scout report

Experienced headCentral defender

R. Saravia is a 33-year-old central defender at Atletico-MG, rated 17.9 overall by Field Insider's model. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (31.8% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.31 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Saravia.

On the season, Saravia graded 17 for current form (age-blind), on 4 clean sheets and 3.309 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 36 → 17). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 18. At 33 Saravia is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 4.8 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Saravia missed 6 games through injury (injury, muscle, muscle fatigue) out of roughly 38 this season. The 19 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.

3.31 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 19 appearances.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 31.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 33, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 17.9 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.31 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).
