In his prime years, he has been a rotation option this season (40.6% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.29 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Xavier.
On the season, Xavier graded 15 for current form (age-blind), on 1 clean sheet and 3.288 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 18 → 13). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2024/25.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 61. At 25 Xavier is in his prime years, and a market index of 6.2 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Xavier missed 8 games through injury (calf, inactive, yellow cards) out of roughly 30 this season. The 6 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
Below his 2024/25 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Sichuan Jiuniu finished 12th of 16 · a lower-table side
3.29 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 6 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (12th of 16) 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.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 40.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
Rated 61.1 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.29 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.
