Clean sheets

4.09 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 27 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (6th of 18) 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.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 74.7% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Defensive volume. 4.09 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

With a Rating of 56.6, Gyamfi carries the 7th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the 2. Bundesliga (top 25%). Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.09 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
