Output in context · Bahia finished 4th of 20 · an upper-table side
2.76 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 22 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th 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 8 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 84.5% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.44 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.
Watch points
- Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.
Outlook
With a Rating of 63.4, Juba carries the 8th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Serie A (top 13%). Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.76 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
