Output in context · Guadalajara Chivas finished 4th of 18 · an upper-table side
2.25 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 9 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th 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 2 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.35 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
- Ceiling. High potential at just 19 — room to grow into a bigger role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 34% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
Rated 51.8 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.25 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 19 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (99/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 19, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
