Clean sheets

3.93 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 10 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th of 15) 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 2 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.22 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.
  • Defensive volume. 3.93 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 21 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 44.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 53.5, Maidana carries the 10th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Liga Profesional Argentina of 108 — though on just 10 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.93 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 21, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
