Clean sheets

6.21 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume across 6 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th of 18) 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.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 6.21 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 89.4/100).

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 13.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 64 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (6.21 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
