Clean sheets

2.43 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume across 2 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (14th of 18) 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 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 1.22 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 4.8% 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 43.7 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.43 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 17 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (100/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
