Clean sheets

1.56 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 34 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 8 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.68 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 32% 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 18.1 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.56 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
