Strengths

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 36.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • 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 11.7, Holgado carries the 35th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Primera A of 57. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.48 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
