Experienced headCreative Winger

Sergio Santos is a 31-year-old winger at FC Cincinnati, rated 19.2 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 416th of 513 on scout potential in the Major League Soccer. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option this season (37.7% of available minutes). He brings 0.5 goal contributions per 90 (0.22 goals, 0.29 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Santos.

Judged on this season alone, Santos graded 18 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 23rd of 35 of the 35 wingers in the Major League Soccer, on 3 goals and 4 assists in 35 appearances (0.502 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 14 → 18). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 19, 33rd of 35 of the 35 wingers in the Major League Soccer. At 31 Santos is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.6 reflects that trajectory.

Goals / app

3 goals in 35 appearances (0.09 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. He also laid on 4 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 7 goal contributions (0.2 per appearance).

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.5 goal contributions per 90 (0.22 goals, 0.29 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 37.7% 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 19.2, Santos carries the 33rd-highest potential of the wingers in the Major League Soccer of 35. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.5 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
