Clean sheets

2.08 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 21 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th 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 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Outlook

With a Rating of 49.8, Pompetti carries the 30th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Serie B of 56 — though on just 21 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.08 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.
