5.05 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 7 appearances.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 5.05 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 12.8% 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 31.2 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5.05 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
