Clean sheets

4.5 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 22 appearances.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 4.5 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 90.1/100).
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 18 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 40.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 78 overall — elite — among the best in the position. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.5 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 18 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (100/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 18, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
