Watch points

- Output. 0.19 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 44.1, Núñez carries the 35th-highest potential of the wingers in the Liga Profesional Argentina of 62, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Newells Old Boys finished 14th of 15) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.19 goal contributions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
