Clean sheets

3.76 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 19 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th 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.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 3.76 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 53.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 49.5, Sforza carries the 9th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Liga Profesional Argentina (top 13%). Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.76 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
