Clean sheets

4.1 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 21 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (6th of 18) 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

  • Defensive volume. 4.1 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 38.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 62.1, Seidu carries the 10th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Ligue 1 of 22. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.1 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.
