Output in context · FC Porto finished 1st of 18 · a title-challenging side
3.95 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 15 clean sheets across 29 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st 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 1 goal and 8 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 72.9% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.36 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
- Creativity. 0.32 assists per 90 — a genuine creative outlet.
- Defensive volume. 3.95 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
- Ceiling. High potential at just 22 — room to grow into a bigger role.
Watch points
- Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.
Outlook
With a Rating of 70.7, Baio carries the 1st-highest potential of the full-backs in the Primeira Liga (top 2%). Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.95 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. 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.
