Clean sheets

5.31 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 12 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (14th of 20) 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 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.18 goal involvements per 90, useful for a defensive midfielder.
  • Defensive volume. 5.31 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 14.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 44 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5.31 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
