Clean sheets

3.12 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 28 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 17) 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 3 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 69.2% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

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

With a Rating of 42.2, Plat carries the 10th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Challenger Pro League (top 24%). Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.12 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
