Clean sheets

4.19 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 12 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (8th 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 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.21 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
  • Defensive volume. 4.19 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 10.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 41.3 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.19 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
