Clean sheets

3.54 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 5 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd 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. 3.54 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

Game time. Only 18.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~7), then tapers with age. At 26, Arib sits on 6.9, at or near its peak. The blue line is Arib's projected Rating — 34.4 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
