Output in context · Al Riyadh finished 12th of 18 · a mid-table side
4.07 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 7 appearances.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 4.07 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
- Ceiling. High potential at just 21 — room to grow into a bigger role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 40.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
With a Rating of 50.5, Alessa carries the 3rd-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Pro League of 39 — though on just 7 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.07 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. With this floor already at 21, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
