Output in context · Antwerp finished 13th of 18 · a lower-table side
3.81 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 16 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (13th of 18) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 3.81 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 25.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
Rated 49.9 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.81 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 20 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (98/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 20, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
