1 goal in 19 appearances (0.05 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 45% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Output. 0.16 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
  • 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 13.5, Herrera carries the 56th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Liga Profesional Argentina of 57. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.16 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
