Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 19 → 21). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2022/23.

Clean sheets

4.13 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 30 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (6th 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.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 4.13 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 54.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 37.8, Eijma carries the 56th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Eerste Divisie of 60. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.13 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
