Clean sheets

4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume across 8 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.

Strengths

Defensive volume. 4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

Game time. Only 32.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 53.4, Clarke carries the 12th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Championship of 54 — though on just 8 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

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 (~25), then tapers with age. At 25, Clarke sits on 24.6, at or near its peak. The blue line is Clarke's projected Rating — 53.4 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.
