Clean sheets

4.66 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 30 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th of 16) 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.

Strengths

Defensive volume. 4.66 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

Game time. Only 43% 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 23.7 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.66 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.

Market valueRating

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 (~3), then tapers with age. At 26, Salo sits on 3.1, at or near its peak. The blue line is Salo's projected Rating — 23.7 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.
