Clean sheets

3.53 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 21 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. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.16 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
  • Defensive volume. 3.53 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 35.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 60.6 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.53 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.
