On long-term talent our Rating reads 19, 62nd of 68 of the 68 centre-backs in the Serie A. At 35 Hugo is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 4.6 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

3.95 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 23 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 3 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.17 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.
  • Defensive volume. 3.95 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 50.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 35, 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, Hugo carries the 62nd-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Serie A of 68. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.95 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
