Clean sheets

3.99 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 29 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (16th of 18) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

Defensive volume. 3.99 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Outlook

Rated 36.7 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.99 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).

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 (~15), then tapers with age. At 29, Elvedi sits on 8.2, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Elvedi's projected Rating — 36.7 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.
