Clean sheets

4.61 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 17 appearances.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 4.61 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 35.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 32.8, Longo carries the 41st-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Liga Profesional Argentina of 64 — though on just 17 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.61 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
