Squad depthCentral midfielder

Dudu is a 26-year-old central midfielder at Mazatlán, rated 42.1 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 137th of 340 on scout potential in the Liga MX. In his prime years, he has been a rotation option this season (55.9% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Dudu.

Judged on this season alone, Dudu graded 19 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 30th of 58 of the 58 central midfielders in the Liga MX, on 1 goal, 3 assists and 0.894 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 19 → 19). Across the 6 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 42, top 38% of the 58 central midfielders in the Liga MX. At 26 Dudu is in his prime years, and a market index of 10.9 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

0.89 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 29 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (16th of 18) 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 1 goal and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.21 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 55.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Defensive numbers. Modest 0.89 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 42.1, Dudu carries the 22nd-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Liga MX (top 38%), and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Mazatlán finished 16th of 18) — 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 light defensive volume (0.89 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
