Clean sheets

1.7 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 15 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 22) 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.

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~4), then tapers with age. At 35, Herrera sits on 1.2, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Herrera's projected Rating — 9.8 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
