Clean sheets

2.78 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 19 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (6th of 8) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 3 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.26 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 31.1% 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 35.9 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.78 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
