Clean sheets

4.55 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 8 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (20th of 20) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 4.55 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 38.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 48.9, Sbai carries the 8th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Eerste Divisie of 34 — though on just 8 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.55 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.
