Clean sheets

6 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume across 1 appearance. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 24) 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. 6 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 4.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 13.3 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (6 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
