11 goals in 34 appearances (0.32 per game) — double figures playing for an upper-table side (4th of 22). Add 1 assist for 12 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.79 goal contributions per 90 (0.73 goals, 0.07 assists) — productive for the role.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 22 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 32.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 65.8, Heredia carries the 8th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Segunda División (top 14%). In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.79 goal contributions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 22, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
