Clean sheets

4.36 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 19 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st of 15) 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. 4.36 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 40% 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 31, Neves carries the 55th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Liga Profesional Argentina of 74. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.36 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
