Clean sheets

5.61 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 10 clean sheets across 23 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 15) 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

  • Defensive volume. 5.61 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 59.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 41.7 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5.61 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
