Clean sheets

2.28 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 33 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th 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. Going forward he chipped in 9 goals and 4 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 77.4% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.49 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

Rated 74 overall — elite — among the best in the position. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.28 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
