Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 62.7% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.27 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
  • Defensive volume. 4.9 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Age curve. At 35, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 20.6, Gámez carries the 87th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Segunda División of 91. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.9 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
