1 goal in 17 appearances (0.06 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 64.3% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Output. 0.09 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.19 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 18.4, Piñeiro carries the 3rd-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Liga MX of 3. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.09 goal contributions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
