3.33 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume across 9 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (17th of 20) 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.

Outlook

With a Rating of 48.7, Eikelboom carries the 14th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Eerste Divisie of 27 — though on just 9 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.33 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 22, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
