Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 3.57 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 25.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 40.9, Morel carries the 18th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Challenger Pro League of 51 — though on just 0 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.57 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 20 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (98/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
