Output in context · Mamelodi Sundowns finished 2nd of 16 · a title-challenging side
4.3 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 11 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 16) 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.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 4.3 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 13.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 31, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 0.6 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.3 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
