Clean sheets

3.07 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 23 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd 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.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 28.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

With a Rating of 45.5, García carries the 16th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Liga MX (top 25%). Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.07 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
