Watch points

Game time. Only 46.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 47.1, Retegui carries the 5th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Pro League of 19 — though on just 9 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (1.02 goal contributions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.

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 (~21), then tapers with age. At 27, Retegui sits on 20.9, at or near its peak. The blue line is Retegui's projected Rating — 47.1 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.
