Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 20 → 37). Across the 3 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 73, top 3% of the 70 full-backs in the Serie A. At 23 Cuiabano is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 34.7 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Cuiabano missed 8 games through injury (sprained ankle, inactive, yellow cards) out of roughly 38 this season. The 30 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.
A career still climbing — Cuiabano is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
Output in context · Botafogo finished 6th of 20 · an upper-table side
3.2 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 30 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (6th of 20) 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. Going forward he chipped in 5 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.4 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 58.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
With a Rating of 73, Cuiabano carries the 2nd-highest potential of the full-backs in the Serie A (top 3%). Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.2 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 23, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
