Clean sheets

3.54 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 33 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 5 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 86.2% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.22 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
  • Defensive volume. 3.54 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Age curve. At 34, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 16.9, Lovitz carries the 93rd-highest potential of the full-backs in the Major League Soccer of 101. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.54 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
