Scout report
Rubén Alves is a 31-year-old central defender at Cordoba, rated 29.3 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 382nd of 452 on scout potential in the Segunda División. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option this season (44.1% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.08 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Alves.
Judged on this season alone, Alves graded 16 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 57th of 79 of the 79 centre-backs in the Segunda División, on 4 clean sheets and 3.076 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 28 → 16). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 29, 60th of 79 of the 79 centre-backs in the Segunda División. At 31 Alves is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 5.6 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2022/23 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Cordoba finished 10th of 22 · a mid-table side

Watch points
- Game time. Only 44.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 31, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 29.3, Alves carries the 60th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Segunda División of 79. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.08 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
