Clean sheets

4.99 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 21 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (12th of 17) 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 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 4.99 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 28.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 31.5, Oudenhove carries the 15th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Challenger Pro League of 17 — though on just 21 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.99 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.
