Clean sheets

2.92 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 13 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.28 goal involvements per 90, useful for a defensive midfielder.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 44.9% 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 26.2, Poom carries the 9th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Super Liga of 20 — though on just 13 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.92 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
