Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Ortíz.

Clean sheets

3.52 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 12 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (15th of 20) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 3.52 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 18.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 22.3, Ortíz carries the 20th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Primera A of 88 — though on just 12 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.52 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
