Clean sheets

3.87 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 11 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.31 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
  • Creativity. 0.31 assists per 90 — a genuine creative outlet.
  • Defensive volume. 3.87 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 20 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 50.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 54.6, Nap carries the 20th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Eerste Divisie of 34 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.87 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. At 20 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (98/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 20, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
