Clean sheets

4.82 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 11 appearances.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 4.82 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 15.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 34.4, Sant'Anna carries the 28th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Serie A of 51 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.82 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
