0 goals in 28 appearances (0 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 5 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 22 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 41.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Output. 0 contributions per 90 is light for an attacking role — end product needs to climb.

Outlook

Rated 51.5 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0 goal contributions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 22, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
