Clean sheets

2.51 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 24 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (17th 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 0 goals and 5 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

Availability. On the pitch for 68.1% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.31 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
Creativity. 0.31 assists per 90 — a genuine creative outlet.

Watch points

Age curve. At 36, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 12.7 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.51 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).

Solid = now · dashed = projected

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~3), then tapers with age. At 36, Sequeira sits on 1, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Sequeira's projected Rating — 12.7 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
