Scout report

Experienced headBall-winning Full-back

Lucas Ahijado is a 31-year-old full-back at Oviedo, rated 32 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 342nd of 389 on scout potential in the La Liga. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option this season (37% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 5.48 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Ahijado.

Judged on this season alone, Ahijado graded 25 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 43rd of 65 of the 65 full-backs in the La Liga, on 3 clean sheets and 5.482 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 12 → 25). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 32, 56th of 65 of the 65 full-backs in the La Liga. At 31 Ahijado is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 12.4 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Ahijado missed 5 games through injury (injury, injured doubtful) out of roughly 38 this season. The 20 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.

Clean sheets

5.48 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 20 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (20th of 20) 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. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 5.48 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 37% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 31, 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 32, Ahijado carries the 56th-highest potential of the full-backs in the La Liga of 65, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Oviedo finished 20th of 20) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5.48 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
