Clean sheets

2.31 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 23 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.46 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
  • Creativity. 0.35 assists per 90 — a genuine creative outlet.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 27.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 33, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 10.6 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.31 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).
