Clean sheets

3.04 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 11 clean sheets across 33 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 20) 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 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 77.8% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 92.5/100).

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

With a Rating of 68.9, Buongiorno carries the 32nd-highest potential of the full-backs in the Serie A of 63. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.04 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.
