Clean sheets

1.61 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume across 4 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.8 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
  • Creativity. 0.8 assists per 90 — a genuine creative outlet.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 3.4% 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 36.6 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.61 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
