Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 0 → 3). Across the 3 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 57. At 23 Cleiton is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 27.2 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Cleiton missed 15 games through injury (ankle) out of roughly 38 this season. The 2 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.

Clean sheets

7.68 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume across 2 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st 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.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 7.68 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 57.3 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (7.68 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 23, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
