Clean sheets

1.05 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume across 2 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

  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 95/100).
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 22 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 2.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 68.3 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.05 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 22, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
