Clean sheets

3.56 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 30 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (19th of 22) 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 0 goals and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

Defensive volume. 3.56 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

Game time. Only 50.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 60.2 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.56 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 23, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.

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 (~40), then tapers with age. At 23, Novoa sits on 25.6, at or near its peak. The blue line is Novoa's projected Rating — 60.2 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.
