Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 12 → 8). Over the 3 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 63. At 22 Sanabria is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 28.6 reflects that trajectory.

Watch points

Game time. Only 22.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 63.3 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (0.78 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 22, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~30), then tapers with age. At 22, Sanabria sits on 28.6, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Sanabria's projected Rating — 63.3 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
