Clean sheets

3.45 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 11 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st 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. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.16 goal involvements per 90, useful for a defensive midfielder.
Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 96/100).
Ceiling. High potential at just 22 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

Game time. Only 16.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 76.9 overall — elite — among the best in the position. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.45 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 22, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.

Market valueRating

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 (~85), then tapers with age. At 22, Gavi sits on 80.7, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Gavi's projected Rating — 76.9 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.
