Clean sheets

1.84 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume across 14 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.39 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 21 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 54.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.84 defensive actions per 90 for the position.

Outlook

Rated 71.4 overall — elite — among the best in the position. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.84 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. 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.
