Clean sheets

4.64 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 28 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 12) 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 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.16 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
  • Defensive volume. 4.64 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 58.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 33, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 12.4, Papp carries the 23rd-highest potential of the central midfielders in the NB I of 31. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.64 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).
