Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 63.8% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 22 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

Rated 61.8 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.13 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 22, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
