Clean sheets

4.48 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 14 clean sheets across 45 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st 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 2 goals and 4 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

Availability. On the pitch for 90.2% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Solid = now · dashed = projected

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 (~5), then tapers with age. At 27, Charles sits on 5.4, at or near its peak. The blue line is Charles's projected Rating — 30.2 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.
