Clean sheets

3.88 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 20 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 20) 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.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 3.88 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 99/100).

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 29.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 54 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.88 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
