Scout report

Experienced headCentre-forward

J. Lucero is a 34-year-old centre-forward at Fortaleza EC, rated 17.8 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 376th of 413 on scout potential in the Serie A. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option this season (42.7% of available minutes). He brings 0.25 goal contributions per 90 (0.19 goals, 0.06 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Lucero.

Judged on this season alone, Lucero graded 16 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 41st of 53 of the 53 centre-forwards in the Serie A, on 3 goals and 1 assist in 27 appearances (0.253 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 36 → 16). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 18, 41st of 53 of the 53 centre-forwards in the Serie A. At 34 Lucero is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 3.8 reflects that trajectory.

3 goals in 27 appearances (0.11 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 1 assist for 4 goal contributions in all.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 42.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Output. 0.25 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.
  • Age curve. At 34, 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 17.8, Lucero carries the 41st-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Serie A of 53. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.25 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
