Output in context · Utrecht finished 6th of 18 · an upper-table side
3.75 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 9 clean sheets across 34 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (6th of 18) 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 3 goals and 12 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.44 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
