Clean sheets

3.79 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 13 appearances.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 3.79 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 21 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 36.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 64.7, Pérez carries the 1st-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Serie A of 15 — though on just 13 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.79 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 21, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
