Clean sheets

2.62 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 10 clean sheets across 25 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st 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. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.15 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 90/100).

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 57.2% 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 44.8 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.62 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).
