Output in context · Cruzeiro U20 finished 5th of 20 · an upper-table side
3.41 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume across 18 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th of 20) 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. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 85.2% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.22 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.
- Ceiling. High potential at just 21 — room to grow into a bigger role.
Watch points
- Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.
Outlook
Rated 78.4 overall — elite — among the best in the position. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.41 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 21, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
