3.04 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 11 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.19 goal involvements per 90, useful for a defensive midfielder.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 19.5% 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 18.6 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.04 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. At 16 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (100/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
