Clean sheets

0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume across 2 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (13th of 14) 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.

Outlook

Rated 34.8 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 19 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (99/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~7), then tapers with age. At 19, Santiago sits on 5.2, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Santiago's projected Rating — 34.8 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
