Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.35 goal contributions per 90 (0.18 goals, 0.18 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 40.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.59 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
  • Age curve. At 39, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 8.7, Malcorra carries the 17th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Liga Profesional Argentina of 17. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.35 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.5× and falling).
