Clean sheets

5.36 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 28 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd 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 1 goal and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 69.7% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Defensive volume. 5.36 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 95/100).

Watch points

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

Outlook

Rated 82.8 overall — elite — among the best in the position. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5.36 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
