Clean sheets

3.04 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 33 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (6th 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 0 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 97.7% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 35.9, Mahdioui carries the 42nd-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Pro League of 66. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.04 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
