Clean sheets

4.36 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 26 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (12th of 15) 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. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 73.9% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Defensive volume. 4.36 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

With a Rating of 49.6, Cannavo carries the 7th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Liga Profesional Argentina (top 11%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Defensa Y Justicia finished 12th of 15) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.36 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
