Clean sheets

1.76 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 15 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 12) 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.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 28.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 39.1, Kelvin carries the 11th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Super League of 34 — though on just 15 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.76 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
