Clean sheets

3.16 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 9 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th of 16) 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.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 28.8% 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 23.6 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.16 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
