Clean sheets

5.3 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 25 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (15th of 18) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 5.3 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 58.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 67.7, Senaya carries the 10th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Ligue 1 (top 40%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Auxerre finished 15th of 18) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5.3 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.
