Clean sheets

3.68 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 22 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (20th of 20) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 3.68 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 52.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 58.3 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.68 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.
