Clean sheets

3.65 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 33 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (15th 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. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 86.2% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Defensive volume. 3.65 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

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

Outlook

With a Rating of 45.9, Boyer carries the 42nd-highest potential of the full-backs in the Ligue 2 of 53, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Boulogne finished 15th of 18) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.65 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
