We hold a single season for Hernández, 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 50, top 28% of the 66 central midfielders in the Pro League. At 21 Hernández is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 13.3 reflects that trajectory.
1.64 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 19 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (13th 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 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 49.9, Hernández carries the 18th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Pro League (top 28%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Al Shabab finished 13th 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 (1.64 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.

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 (~15), then tapers with age. At 21, Hernández sits on 13.3, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Hernández's projected Rating — 49.9 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.
