5 clean sheets in 35 appearances (14% of games). Keeping that many behind a lower-table side (20th of 24) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 76.1% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

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

Outlook

Rated 26.4 overall — below regular-starter level. A a regular starter keeper carrying the gloves this season. In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
