Career report

Below his 2024/25 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.

Peak: 2024/25Trending upBreakout: 2024/25StreakyStepped up 2022/23Injury-hit 2025/26

The record covers 6 seasons (2020/21–2025/26) across 2 clubs — 172 appearances with 14 goal contributions from defence.

His best campaign on record is 2024/25 at Lorient — Season rating 58, 1 goal and 6 assists in 32 games. 2024/25 was the leap — Season rating up 44 points at Lorient. Form is on a climb — up 8 Season points across his last 3 full seasons. The gap to his peak is 36 Season points.

2025/26 was disrupted — 7 fixtures missed through injury or absence. A streaky profile — form has swung hard between campaigns (spread of ±18 points), so the peak and the trough are far apart. Made the jump to a higher division in 2022/23 (Ligue 1) and kept playing — 37 games that season.
