Clean sheets

2.91 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 19 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th of 17) 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. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.17 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~8), then tapers with age. At 24, Ruiz-Atil sits on 8.2, at or near its peak. The blue line is Ruiz-Atil's projected Rating — 40.6 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
