Clean sheets

3.48 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 28 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (10th of 14) 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 2 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Outlook

Rated 26.8 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.48 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× 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 (~11), then tapers with age. At 28, Amani sits on 3.2, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Amani's projected Rating — 26.8 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.
