Clean sheets

4.79 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 13 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (16th of 18) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 4.79 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 32.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 52.2, Kouassi carries the 31st-highest potential of the full-backs in the Ligue 2 of 53 — though on just 13 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.79 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 23, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
