Clean sheets

3.92 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 16 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. 3.92 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 32.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 65, Pérez carries the 1st-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Serie A (top 5%). Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.92 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.
