Clean sheets

1.99 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 25 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th of 18) 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

  • Ceiling. High potential at just 22 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 56.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.99 defensive actions per 90 for the position.

Outlook

Rated 62.3 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.99 tackles, blocks & interceptions 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.
