Clean sheets

3.48 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 11 clean sheets across 23 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st 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

  • Availability. On the pitch for 62.6% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 90/100).

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

Rated 77.9 overall — elite — among the best in the position. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.48 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
