Clean sheets

3.94 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 9 clean sheets across 29 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd 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

  • Defensive volume. 3.94 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 48.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 63.1 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.94 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
