Clean sheets

4.65 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 14 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (15th of 16) 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. 4.65 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 40.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 28 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.65 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
