Clean sheets

3.77 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 18 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st of 20) 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 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 3.77 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 23% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 49.9 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.77 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 22, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
