Clean sheets

4.29 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 16 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 4.29 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 43.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 43.2, Otávio carries the 12th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Major League Soccer of 40 — though on just 16 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.29 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 19 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (99/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
