Juan Cuadrado

Key strength: Work rate

Box-to-box midfielder

At 37 years young, Juan Cuadrado finds himself in the trenches of a relegation dogfight with Pisa Sporting Club, who languish in 19th place with survival hanging by a thread. The Colombian veteran, valued at a modest €1m, has made 12 appearances this season, clocking 401 minutes of gritty box-to-box action that's yielded one goal. While the numbers may not sparkle, Cuadrado's work rate remains his calling card—a relentless engine in a side desperately needing experience. With teammates like Idrissa Touré and M'Bala Nzola carrying higher ratings, the onus falls on Cuadrado's veteran savvy to steady the ship. His declining pace (50) and physicality (50) tell the tale of age, but his 55 passing and tactical intelligence still offer value in tight contests. For a player who's graced World Cups and top European leagues, this late-career Italian odyssey is about one thing: helping Pisa claw their way to safety. Every minute matters now.
