Clean sheets

3.89 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 28 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd 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 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 3.89 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 55.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 55.1, Moreno carries the 20th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Serie A (top 32%). Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.89 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.
