Clean sheets

1.38 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 27 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 3 goals and 6 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 61.8% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.43 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 22 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.38 defensive actions per 90 for the position.

Outlook

Rated 81.8 overall — elite — among the best in the position. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.38 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 22, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
