3.63 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 21 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.16 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
Defensive volume. 3.63 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Ceiling. High potential at just 20 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

Game time. Only 37.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 58.2 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.63 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 20 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (98/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 20, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~34), then tapers with age. At 20, Sousa sits on 18.9, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Sousa's projected Rating — 58.2 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
