On long-term talent our Rating reads 66, top 8% of the 55 full-backs in the Primeira Liga. At 23 Pinheiro is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 39.4 reflects that trajectory.
A career still climbing — Pinheiro is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
3.01 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 14 clean sheets across 29 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th of 18) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 3 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 66.3, Pinheiro carries the 4th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Primeira Liga (top 8%). Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.01 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 23, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
Generated from Field Insider's rating model · AI-written analysis to follow.
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 (~39), then tapers with age. At 23, Pinheiro sits on 39.4, at or near its peak. The blue line is Pinheiro's projected Rating — 66.3 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.
