Clean sheets

4.15 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 19 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 18) 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. 4.15 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Outlook

Rated 43.1 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.15 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.

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 ages 23–27 (~16), then tapers with age. At 26, Gaudin sits on 13.7, at or near its peak. The blue line is Gaudin's projected Rating — 43.1 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.
