Clean sheets

3.18 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 21 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd 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 5 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.41 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 90.5/100).

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 50% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 31, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 39.2 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.18 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
