Clean sheets

3.42 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 15 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (15th of 16) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 87.8% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 36.1, Diatara carries the 9th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Allsvenskan (top 19%), and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Degerfors IF finished 15th of 16) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.42 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
