Clean sheets

1.66 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 6 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 12) 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 5.7% 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 37 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.66 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
