Clean sheets

2.7 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 10 clean sheets across 30 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th of 20) 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 0 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 71.2% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 94.5/100).

Watch points

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

Outlook

Rated 62 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.7 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
