C. Terán is a 25-year-old central defender at Chicago Fire, rated 36.4 overall by Field Insider's model. In his prime years, he has been a fringe squad member this season (25.1% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 4.65 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Terán.

On the season, Terán graded 10 for current form (age-blind), on 1 clean sheet and 4.649 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 15 → 10). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 36. At 25 Terán is in his prime years, and a market index of 6.8 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Terán missed 13 games through injury (hamstring, injury) out of roughly 37 this season. The 8 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
