Clean sheets

0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume across 7 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (7th of 8) 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.

Strengths

Availability. On the pitch for 100% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Ceiling. High potential at just 22 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

Defensive numbers. Modest 0 defensive actions per 90 for the position.

Outlook

Rated 71.3 overall — elite — among the best in the position. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 22, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

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 (~34), then tapers with age. At 22, Riquelme sits on 32.2, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Riquelme's projected Rating — 71.3 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.
