Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on García.
On the season, García graded 41 for current form (age-blind), on 2 goals, 5 assists and 2.764 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 26 → 26). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 29. At 33 García is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 11.3 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2020/21 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Osasuna finished 17th of 20 · a lower-table side
2.76 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 35 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (17th of 20) 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. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 5 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 65.7% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.28 goal involvements per 90, useful for a defensive midfielder.
Watch points
- 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 29.2 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.76 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).
