1.87 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 20 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 44.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.87 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 29.6 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.87 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
