On long-term talent our Rating reads 26, 27th of 30 of the 30 defensive midfielders in the Liga MX. At 31 Guzmán is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 8.3 reflects that trajectory.
1.85 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 37 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th of 18) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 5 goals and 8 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 25.7, Guzmán carries the 27th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Liga MX of 30. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.85 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).

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 31, Guzmán sits on 8.3, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Guzmán's projected Rating — 25.7 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.
