Output in context · Atletico Paranaense finished 3rd of 20 · an upper-table side
2.29 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 16 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 20) 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.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 32.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
Rated 64.8 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.29 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
