Clean sheets

1.83 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 13 appearances.

Strengths

  • Ceiling. High potential at just 21 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 14.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 52.9 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.83 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.
