Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 8 → 43). Across the 5 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

Clean sheets

3.92 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 10 clean sheets across 26 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (12th of 12) 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.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 100% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Defensive volume. 3.92 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 13, Ferreyra carries the 15th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the A-League of 27, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Western Sydney Wanderers finished 12th of 12) — 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 (3.92 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
