Clean sheets

1.6 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 19 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (17th of 18) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Watch points

Game time. Only 40.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Defensive numbers. Modest 1.6 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 34.4 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.6 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~13), then tapers with age. At 27, Opoku sits on 7.9, at or near its peak. The blue line is Opoku's projected Rating — 34.4 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
