Clean sheets

8.44 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume across 3 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd 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. 8.44 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 99/100).

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 0.9% 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 high defensive volume (8.44 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.
