A seasoned veteran, he has been an ever-present this season (87.2% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.03 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Moreira.
Judged on this season alone, Moreira graded 17 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 51st of 101 of the 101 full-backs in the Major League Soccer, on 5 clean sheets and 2.031 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 25 → 17). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 24, 77th of 101 of the 101 full-backs in the Major League Soccer. At 31 Moreira is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.4 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2020/21 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
