Clean sheets

4.17 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 17 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st of 21) 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 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 4.17 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 51.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 34.7, Shehata carries the 4th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Premier League (top 14%). Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.17 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
