Clean sheets

4.29 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume across 1 appearance. Doing that for a lower-table side (15th 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.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 4.29 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 92.6/100).
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 17 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 3.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 70.3 overall — elite — among the best in the position. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.29 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 17 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (100/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 17, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
