Clean sheets

4.15 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 9 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd 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.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 4.15 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 17.1% 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 32.5 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.15 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 19 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (99/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
