Clean sheets

2.13 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 17 clean sheets across 31 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (16th of 21) 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 7 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 93.9% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.26 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.

Watch points

  • Age curve. At 32, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 19.5, Shousha carries the 57th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Premier League of 85, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Ghazl El Mehalla finished 16th of 21) — 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 moderate defensive volume (2.13 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
