Judged on this season alone, García graded 33 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 30th of 44 of the 44 centre-forwards in the La Liga, on 8 goals and 1 assist in 37 appearances (0.463 involvements per 90).
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 49 → 33). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 24, 42nd of 44 of the 44 centre-forwards in the La Liga. At 36 García is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 7.8 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2020/21 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
