Clean sheets

13.85 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume across 1 appearance. Behind an upper-table side (3rd 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.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 13.85 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 0.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 32, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 13 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (13.85 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
