Chiquinho's 2025/26 season, read from the numbers

In 2025/26, Chiquinho moved in and out of the side for Alverca in the Primeira Liga: 20 appearances and 1492 minutes, averaging 75 minutes per outing. Per 90 minutes that is 0.1 goals per 90, 1.0 shots per 90 and 38% of his shots on target — the rate profile behind Chiquinho's totals.

Chiquinho played 251 passes — 15.1 per 90, which is the volume that decides whether a side builds through him or around him. Carrying the ball, Chiquinho attempted 74 dribbles and completed 43% — 4.5 attempts per 90.

Set against Chiquinho's own record, 2025/26 reads differently: it is also the heaviest workload we have recorded for him, 1492 minutes against a previous high of 393; his average match rating has risen from 6.51 to 7.13 since 2024/25. Discipline is part of the picture for Chiquinho: 6 bookings in 20 appearances, one every 3.3 games.

Our records cover 3 seasons of Chiquinho's career, 2021/22 to 2024/25, across 5 clubs — Wolves, Estoril, Stoke City, Famalicao and others. In that time he has played 66 matches across 7 competitions, 3,210 minutes in all. His best return on our records was 5 goals in 2023/24, from 31 appearances. The current campaign has yet to give him a run.

How these scores are built, and the minutes and rating floors a player must clear to appear on our boards, are set out in our methodology.
