Clean sheets

3.91 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 31 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.

Strengths

Availability. On the pitch for 69.9% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Defensive volume. 3.91 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 45.5 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.91 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.

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 age 24 (~12), then tapers with age. At 24, Ceesay sits on 11.5, at or near its peak. The blue line is Ceesay's projected Rating — 45.5 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.
