Clean sheets

4.15 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 16 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (13th of 18) 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 87.8% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Defensive volume. 4.15 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 23.9, Akueson carries the 6th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Ligue 3 of 7, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Bastia finished 13th of 18) — 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 (4.15 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
