S. Gomez is a 20-year-old central midfielder at Seattle Sounders, rated 40.7 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 207th of 506 on scout potential in the Major League Soccer and 365th of 609 U-21 players tracked. A young player, he has been a fringe squad member this season (27.7% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.19 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Gomez.

Judged on this season alone, Gomez graded 13 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 86th of 93 of the 93 central midfielders in the Major League Soccer, on 1 goal, 1 assist and 2.195 defensive actions per 90.

We hold a single season for Gomez, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 41, 47th of 93 of the 93 central midfielders in the Major League Soccer. At 20 Gomez is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 6.5 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

2.19 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 15 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (14th of 15) 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 1 goal and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.26 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 27.7% 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 40.7, Gomez carries the 47th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Major League Soccer of 93 — though on just 15 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.19 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 20 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (98/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
