Goals / app

2 goals in 25 appearances (0.08 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. He also laid on 5 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 7 goal contributions (0.28 per appearance).

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.47 goal contributions per 90 (0.13 goals, 0.33 assists) — productive for the role.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 88.9/100).

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 41.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.6 defensive actions per 90 for the position.

Outlook

With a Rating of 77.4, Neto carries the 17th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the La Liga (top 33%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Elche finished 15th of 20) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.47 goal contributions 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.
