2.86 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 28 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.28 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 47.7% 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 20.9 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.86 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
