Clean sheets

6.15 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 7 appearances.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 6.15 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 7.6% 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 28.7 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (6.15 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
