Squad depthCentral midfielder

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 7 → 6). Over the 3 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.

Clean sheets

0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 14 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (16th of 16) 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 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.32 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 20.9% 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 24.9 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
