Clean sheets

3.33 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 17 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 12) 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.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 23.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 31.2 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.33 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.
