2.38 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 15 clean sheets across 23 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st of 16) 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.
