Watch points

  • Game time. Only 36% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 36, 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 12.6, Rondón carries the 41st-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Liga MX of 43. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.35 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
