Goals / app

6 goals in 33 appearances (0.18 per game) for a title-challenging side. Add 1 assist for 7 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.57 goal contributions per 90 (0.49 goals, 0.08 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 35.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.64 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
  • Age curve. At 32, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 19.3, Daniel carries the 9th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Segunda Liga of 10. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.57 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
