Clean sheets

3.87 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 10 clean sheets across 35 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 24) 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

Availability. On the pitch for 69.1% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Defensive volume. 3.87 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 28.1 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.87 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.

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 (~11), then tapers with age. At 27, Sanders sits on 5.1, at or near its peak. The blue line is Sanders's projected Rating — 28.1 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.
