Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 29 → 1). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 70. At 21 Milambo is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 75.9 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

6 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume across 1 appearance.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 6 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 95.8/100).
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 21 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 2.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 70.3 overall — elite — among the best in the position. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (6 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 21, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
