Clean sheets

1.31 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 18 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (13th of 16) 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.

Watch points

Game time. Only 47.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Defensive numbers. Modest 1.31 defensive actions per 90 for the position.

Outlook

With a Rating of 49.2, Adriano carries the 1st-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Super League (top 2%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Wuhan Three Towns finished 13th of 16) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.31 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.

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 (~5), then tapers with age. At 26, Adriano sits on 5, at or near its peak. The blue line is Adriano's projected Rating — 49.2 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.
