Output in context · Petrolul Ploiesti finished 3rd of 16 · an upper-table side
4.05 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 37 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 1 goal and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 86.1% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Defensive volume. 4.05 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Age curve. At 32, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 17.9 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.05 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
