Miguel Román

Román's 2026/27 season, read from the numbers

In 2026/27, Miguel Román was used in rotation for Celta Vigo in the La Liga: 7 appearances and 579 minutes, averaging 83 minutes per outing. He grades out best for match rating — 195th of 978 midfielders and inside the top 20%.

Per 90 minutes that is 1.1 key passes per 90, 0.3 assists per 90 and 1.7 ball recoveries per 90 — the rate profile behind Román's totals. Román played 416 passes at 88% accuracy — 64.7 per 90, which is the volume that decides whether a side builds through him or around him.

The profile is lopsided rather than complete: measured against midfielders, Román sits in the top 36% for chance creation but only the top 73% for shot conversion. Set against Román's own record, 2026/27 reads differently: he is playing far less than he once did — 669 minutes against 3391 at his peak; his average match rating has risen from 6.95 to 7.21 since 2025/26.

Our records cover 3 seasons of Román's career, 2024/25 to 2026/27, all of it at Celta Vigo. In that time he has played 42 matches across 3 competitions, 2,666 minutes in all. His best return on our records was 3 assists in 2025/26, from 29 appearances. He is 8 appearances into the current one.

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.
