Clean sheets

1.83 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 20 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (15th 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 0 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.33 goal involvements per 90, useful for a defensive midfielder.
  • Creativity. 0.33 assists per 90 — a genuine creative outlet.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 20 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 17.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 59.9 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.83 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.
