Clean sheets

2.57 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume across 20 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 13) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.3 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 17.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 43.5 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.57 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
