8 clean sheets in 35 appearances (23% of games).

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 89.3% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 95.3/100).

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

Rated 67.2 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. A near ever-present keeper carrying the gloves this season. Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
