Clean sheets

4.08 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 23 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st of 16) 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. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.24 goal involvements per 90, useful for a defensive midfielder.
  • Defensive volume. 4.08 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 27.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 12.8, Cordero carries the 11th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Primera División of 20 — though on just 23 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.08 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
