Clean sheets

1.79 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 31 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 6 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 85.4% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.28 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 21 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.79 defensive actions per 90 for the position.

Outlook

Rated 84.8 overall — elite — among the best in the position. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.79 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 21, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
