Output in context · Frosinone finished 2nd of 20 · a title-challenging side
2.23 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 10 clean sheets across 36 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd 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 2 goals and 4 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 66% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.24 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
- Ceiling. High potential at just 20 — room to grow into a bigger role.
Watch points
- Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.
Outlook
With a Rating of 70.5, Cichella carries the 4th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Serie B (top 6%). Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.23 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. At 20 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (98/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 20, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
