Clean sheets

1.79 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 10 clean sheets across 28 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 16 goals and 11 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 66.3% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 1.07 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
  • Creativity. 0.44 assists per 90 — a genuine creative outlet.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 96/100).
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 19 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.79 defensive actions per 90 for the position.

Outlook

Rated 100 overall — elite — among the best in the position. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.79 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. At 19 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (99/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 19, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
