In his prime years, he has been a rotation option this season (55% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.58 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Pacheco.
Judged on this season alone, Pacheco graded 20 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 56th of 75 of the 75 centre-backs in the La Liga, on 3 clean sheets and 3.581 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 14 → 20). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 72, top 36% of the 75 centre-backs in the La Liga. At 25 Pacheco is in his prime years, and a market index of 47.8 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Alaves finished 14th of 20 · a lower-table side
3.58 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 22 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (14th 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. 3.58 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
- Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 89.4/100).
Watch points
- Game time. Only 55% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
With a Rating of 72.1, Pacheco carries the 27th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the La Liga (top 36%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Alaves finished 14th of 20) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.58 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.
