Clean sheets

2.94 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 21 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th of 20) 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 0 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.28 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 97.9/100).

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 18.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 45.2 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.94 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
