Output in context · Helmond Sport finished 18th of 20 · a relegation-threatened side
2.37 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 37 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (18th of 20) 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 7 goals and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 84.4% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.31 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
- Ceiling. High potential at just 21 — room to grow into a bigger role.
Watch points
- Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.
Outlook
Rated 58 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.37 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 21, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
