Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 4 → 14).
On long-term talent our Rating reads 64, top 27% of the 82 centre-backs in the Championship. At 21 Otegbayo is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 73.3 reflects that trajectory.
A career still climbing — Otegbayo is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
3.06 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 35 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (24th of 24) 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 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 63.6, Otegbayo carries the 22nd-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Championship (top 27%), and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Sheffield Wednesday finished 24th of 24) — 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 moderate defensive volume (3.06 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). 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.

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~81), then tapers with age. At 21, Otegbayo sits on 73.3, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Otegbayo's projected Rating — 63.6 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
