Clean sheets

6.01 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 10 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.35 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
  • Defensive volume. 6.01 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 12.3% 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 30.8 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (6.01 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
