Clean sheets

2.49 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 22 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th 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.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 54.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 25.6 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.49 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.
