Tiago Manso is a 26-year-old full-back at Tondela, rated 49.1 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 220th of 317 in the Primeira Liga. In his prime years, he has been a rotation option this season (50.9% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.93 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Manso.
Judged on this season alone, Manso graded 23 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 32nd of 55 of the 55 full-backs in the Primeira Liga, on 4 clean sheets and 3.931 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 10 → 23). Across the 4 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 49, 37th of 55 of the 55 full-backs in the Primeira Liga. At 26 Manso is in his prime years, and a market index of 18.7 reflects that trajectory.
A career still climbing — Manso is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
3.93 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 28 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (17th 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 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 49.1, Manso carries the 37th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Primeira Liga of 55, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Tondela finished 17th 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 solid defensive volume (3.93 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~19), then tapers with age. At 26, Manso sits on 18.7, at or near its peak. The blue line is Manso's projected Rating — 49.1 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
