Clean sheets

2.39 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 8 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (6th 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 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.32 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 93.5/100).
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 22 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 33% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 78.6 overall — elite — among the best in the position. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.39 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 22, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
