Clean sheets

1 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume across 2 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th of 24) 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. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 1 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
  • Creativity. 1 assists per 90 — a genuine creative outlet.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 98.7/100).

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 4.3% 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 30.2 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
