On long-term scout potential he's rated 13.9, ranking 302nd of 317 in the Pro League. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option (49% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.98 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on González.
Judged on this season alone, González graded 15 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 24th of 29 of the 29 defensive midfielders in the Pro League, on 1 goal, 0 assists and 1.983 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 46 → 15). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 14, 27th of 29 of the 29 defensive midfielders in the Pro League. At 34 González is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.1 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Al Riyadh finished 15th of 18 · a lower-table side
1.98 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 19 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (15th of 18) 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 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 49% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Defensive numbers. Modest 1.98 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
- Age curve. At 34, 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 13.9, González carries the 27th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Pro League of 29, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Al Riyadh finished 15th of 18) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.98 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
