Clean sheets

3.75 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 20 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. 3.75 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 36.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 51.4 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.75 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.
