Clean sheets

0.75 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 28 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd 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. Going forward he chipped in 5 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.56 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 35.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Defensive numbers. Modest 0.75 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 34.8, Nazarenko carries the 9th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Premier League (top 33%). Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (0.75 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
