Clean sheets

2.25 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 20 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st of 15) 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.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 6.3% 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 21.1, Elías carries the 62nd-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Liga Profesional Argentina of 91. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.25 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
