Clean sheets

2.04 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 11 clean sheets across 33 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 3 goals and 5 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.31 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 48.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • 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

Rated 11.8 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.04 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
