Clean sheets

2.86 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 20 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st of 15) 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 1 goal and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 66.7% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.21 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

With a Rating of 48.7, Badwal carries the 8th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Major League Soccer (top 10%). Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.86 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). 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.
