Clean sheets

3.73 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 4 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 20) 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. 3.73 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 14.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 49.4 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.73 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 21, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
