Clean sheets

4.17 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 20 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 4.17 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 33.2% 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 18, Alarcón carries the 6th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Primera División of 15 — though on just 20 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.17 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.
