8 clean sheets in 30 appearances (27% of games). Keeping that many behind a relegation-threatened side (10th of 12) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 90.9% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 44.5 overall — developing / rotation level. A near ever-present keeper carrying the gloves this season. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
