On long-term talent our Rating reads 60. At 19 Riquelme is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 22.7 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Riquelme missed 7 games through injury (knee) out of roughly 38 this season. The 6 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.

Clean sheets

8.65 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume across 6 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th of 20) 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.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 8.65 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 19 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 3.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 59.6 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (8.65 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 19 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (99/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 19, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
