Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 3.68 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 30.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 48.9, Oyayari carries the 4th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Pro League (top 13%). Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.68 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.
