Clean sheets

3.91 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 6 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 18) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.25 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.
  • Defensive volume. 3.91 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 90.5/100).
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 21 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 12% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 73.7 overall — elite — among the best in the position. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.91 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 21, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
