Clean sheets

1.91 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 14 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st of 16) 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 1 goal and 6 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.58 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
  • Creativity. 0.5 assists per 90 — a genuine creative outlet.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 40.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.91 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 34 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.91 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
