Clean sheets

6.48 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 3 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 12) 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. 6.48 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 96.3/100).

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 8.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 70.6 overall — elite — among the best in the position. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (6.48 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 23, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
