Clean sheets

5.04 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume across 4 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (16th of 18) 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.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 5.04 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 17 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 3.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 62.3 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5.04 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 17 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (100/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 17, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
