Clean sheets

2.43 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume across 2 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st 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 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 1.22 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 4.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 47.3 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.43 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 17 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (100/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
