Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 3 → 42). Across the 5 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 38, 39th of 68 of the 68 centre-backs in the Serie A. At 31 Duarte is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 13.6 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Duarte missed 8 games through injury (injury, inactive, yellow cards) out of roughly 38 this season. The 25 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.
A career still climbing — Duarte is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
