Clean sheets

11.74 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume across 3 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (6th of 18) 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.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 11.74 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 16 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 0.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 53.1 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (11.74 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 16 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 16, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
