Clean sheets

4.11 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 9 appearances.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 4.11 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 39.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 34, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 11.6, Piergianni carries the 55th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the League One of 64 — though on just 9 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.11 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
