Output in context · Union Santa Fe finished 2nd of 15 · a title-challenging side
4.09 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 26 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 15) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 70.4% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Defensive volume. 4.09 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
- Ceiling. High potential at just 21 — room to grow into a bigger role.
Watch points
- Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.
Outlook
With a Rating of 55.9, Vargas carries the 3rd-highest potential of the full-backs in the Liga Profesional Argentina (top 4%). Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.09 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 21, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
