Yamile Franco

Yamile Franco is a crucial player for Monterrey in the Liga MX Femenil, known for her commanding presence in the central defensive midfield (CDM) role. At 32 years old, Franco exhibits significant experience and tactical intelligence on the field. In her recent season, she played 30 games and contributed a total of 1382 minutes, demonstrating her consistent role as a reliable choice for her team's midfield structure. Franco is recognized for her "Anchor" archetype, a player type reflecting her pivotal role in maintaining team balance and defensive solidity. Although she scores an average of 0.22 goals per game, her contribution remains primarily non-offensive, as she has not registered assists this season.

Franco's strength lies in her defensive acumen, characterized by 4.49 possession-adjusted interceptions and 5.68 challenges per game. Her defensive efforts are complemented by her ability to contribute to the team's forward play through passing, with a progressive passing distance per game of 321.91. While she does not engage in shooting, as indicated by her shots per game stat being zero, her xG per game suggests she occasionally positions herself in spaces that might yield scoring opportunities. Although her challenge success rate stands at 0%, highlighting possible areas for improvement, her playmaker rank of 3.5 suggests a solid but not outstanding influence as a creative force. Franco's estimated transfer value is pegged at €0, perhaps reflecting her integral, yet non-commercial, role at Monterrey.
