Judged on this season alone, Sánchez graded 46 — an excellent campaign that ranks top 8% of the 50 centre-backs in the Süper Lig, on 10 clean sheets and 3.453 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 55 → 46). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2024/25.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 31, 30th of 50 of the 50 centre-backs in the Süper Lig. At 30 Sánchez is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 6 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2024/25 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Galatasaray finished 1st of 18 · a title-challenging side
3.45 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 10 clean sheets across 30 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st 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. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 84.2% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Watch points
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 31.3, Sánchez carries the 30th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Süper Lig of 50. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.45 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
