Clean sheets

1.85 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 32 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 24) 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 67.4% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

Defensive numbers. Modest 1.85 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 30.3 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.85 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.

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~4), then tapers with age. At 26, Hartigan sits on 3.8, at or near its peak. The blue line is Hartigan's projected Rating — 30.3 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
