Clean sheets

3.51 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 11 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (17th of 20) 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 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.27 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
  • Defensive volume. 3.51 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 19.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 35.8 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.51 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 20 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (98/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
