Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 37 → 53). Across the 6 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 26, 60th of 84 of the 84 central midfielders in the Major League Soccer. At 31 Delgado is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 3.6 reflects that trajectory.
A career still climbing — Delgado is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
Output in context · Los Angeles FC finished 3rd of 15 · an upper-table side
4.43 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 10 clean sheets across 35 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd 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. Going forward he chipped in 3 goals and 7 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 86.5% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.31 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
- Defensive volume. 4.43 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- 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 25.7, Delgado carries the 60th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Major League Soccer of 84. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.43 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
